Lifton Primary School Virtual Science Fair 2020
To celebrate the Great Science Share for Schools, Lifton Primary School decided to hold a virtual science fair. The Great Science Share is an annual campaign designed to encourage children to share their scientific questions with new audiences.
Children from all classes were invited to submit a project answering any question they wished. Some children have entered as groups or as a small class bubble.
We are so proud of the amazing and varied entries that have been submitted. Some of the projects have been done at home, some in school but either way, you can see an enormous amount of work has gone into each of them. A huge well done to all those who have entered. Category winners and prizes will be announced by Friday 3rd July.
