Na'eem Davis & Izahn Schönken also won the "Akulu Marchon Prize for the best mathematics project (R600.00)" at the Expo and are going through to Nationals.
There were a number of UP with SCIENCE learners who presented projects from their own schools. I know that some of the learners received assistance from people in different departments. All these learners did well and I would like to thank everybody that helped them.
- Gold went to
Gerhard Maré for his "Die mikrogolfoond as leerhulpmiddel vir hoërskool Wetenskap". He has also been selected to go to Nationals.
- Renate Eike Schoeman got a silver award for her "Albedo en 'n warm bord kos".
Well done to all of you.
