Kells Takes Regional Science Fair By Storm!

This has been another successful year for Kells scientists. Kells students have proven once again that science is one of their passions from class presentations to the school-wide Science Fair, and the Montreal Regional Science and Technology Fair. Outstanding achievements in the field of science are at the top of Kells students’ priorities.

The exciting scientific ride started in September when all Kells students started working on their Science Fair projects. A multitude of ideas involving design and experimentation, were translated into interesting projects ranging from building holograms and identifying the best material for soundproofing a room, to designing a flash light for the visually impaired and making magnetic paint, to crossing the electromagnetic spectrum and studying the factors that result in tornado forming and severity. Since everyone participates, the experience is an integral way that the students engage within the school community.

The best projects at each grade level were presented in the January local Science Fair. Trophies and acknowledgement certificates were distributed to the winners as well as the entire participating group. From there, six projects were selected to go to the 34th Hydro-Quebec Montreal Regional Science and Technology Fair held at Concordia University.

The Regional Fair was an even greater successful event, providing Kells students the opportunity to showcase their excellent projects to the larger academic community.

Our students had a wonderful time participating in this prestigious event and represented us proudly, by being the recipients of several prizes:

Congratulations to all participants for their outstanding performance!

Warm your engines to start a new science fair ride next September!
