Beacon Science Day

 

Events

On Science Day at Beacon School, we celebrate the endless possibilities of Science! We reflect on the incredible scientific progress the world has made in recent times, and the practical
applications of Science to our day-to-day lives. We usually focus on the natural sciences, engineering and technology, medical & health sciences and agricultural sciences. 

Certified organisations in the science and technology space such as the ‘Science Set’ inventors, ‘Dext Technology Limited’ and the Robotics & Artificial Intelligence (AI) education company, ‘Khalmax Robotics’ come in to interact with the children and teach them how to use their products. The students thoroughly enjoy experimenting with their innovative devices. 

In order for the children to appreciate the various paths the study of Science could lead them on, we often invite former Beacon students who are currently studying various branches of Science in tertiary institutions to speak with the children about their individual journeys – their challenges, joys and aspirations.

Finally, Beacon students also get to display their own scientific inventions and give exposés on their personal scientific discoveries to the rest of the school and to visiting family members. They always blow us away with their creativity and innovation. A prize is awarded to the individual or Team that comes up with the most compelling innovation.
