“EUREKA 2019” Project day was conducted on December 20th and 21st based on the theme ‘Discoveries & Inventions’, which gave the opportunity to utilize their imagination and bring forth ideas to present in the form of models, charts and experiments.
Ms. AswithaBiju – India’s youngest palaeontologist was the chief guest. The project day was an interactive event for students with quick learning opportunity. The aim of this project was to promote science and to bring children under one roof to develop science.
Our brightest minds worked hard to bring out innovative models. As Dr.Radhakrishnan has correctly said, “Science has achieved more for the emancipation of masses than the wisdom of sages.”
It is the only subject which has brought a revolutionary change in our lives since antiquity. The students of San Academy have embarked an expedition through Science and have turned their classroom lessons into trail of exhibits on various levels.
Students displayed their novice innovations, ideas and interests, in the best possible way.Our brightest minds portrayed a variety and versatility with all sorts of detailed scientific structures. This took a fortnight of preparation, planning and creativity. San Academy has always excelled in developing a scientific rational thinking in our children which has led to this Project Day. We inculcate curiosity among children so that they think out of the box and are able to showcase their talents and innovations.
