Some of our Grade Four students recently participated in the annual Little Einstein Science Fair at Aga Khan High School. The little Novaneers wowed the crowd and scooped the first prize in “Clarity of Expression” for their innovative project dubbed “The Lemon Battery”.
Inspiring the next Generation of science explorers
Little Einsteins East Africa believes that Science Exploration in young children begins with Fun, and sets the basis for a lifelong interest and knowledge of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Learning. The intention of their Science Fair is to showcase the innovation of children in STEM. The children showcasing their projects are between the ages of 3 and 12 years old.
STEAM at Nova Pioneer
Our Novaneers continue to amaze us with how much they can learn and accomplish in and out of the classroom. Nova Pioneer introduced STEAM-based learning programmes in an effort to equip students with the skills and knowledge needed to thrive in the 21st century. STEAM learning will not only produce tomorrow’s designers and engineers; it will develop innovative mindsets and the ability to problem-solve, ensuring that our students become creators of technology, not just passive consumers.
Taking science beyond the classroom
We are proud to be part of developing the next generation of science explorers. Nova Pioneer teachers encourage students to participate in extracurricular science activities such as the Little Einstein Science Fair as a way for them to further develop science content knowledge and process skills.
