Maitland Area School

Last Wednesday, Emma Westbrook and myself took two very excited teams to compete in the Port Pirie Science Week Expo. 

A Primary team and a Secondary team competed against other schools from within the region in a series of three challenges. 

Our Secondary team consisted of Liam, Shaylah, Jasmine and Evie who started strongly and despite struglling with the last two challenges still finished a commendable fourth. 

Better news for Lily, Sophie, Steph and Oscar who competed consistently in all challenges to finish the day in equal first position. 

It was a rewarding day for all involved and it was good to see the teams work together to find solutions to the problems presented to them.
