3rd SAIS Eastern Seaboard Science Fair
Wow – What a day. The 3rd SAIS Eastern
Seaboard Science Fair is over for another year,
but what a success it was. Students from 6
International Schools competed in a variety of
categories. The exhibits were of an extremely
high quality and very varied in their scientific  
scope. The Science Department wowed
onlookers with an exciting science show and
teased the brain power of competitors with a
‘Science Olympiad’. SAIS Green Valley won 10
of the 20 prizes available, which included the
coveted ‘Best in Show’, won by Mild (Year 9)
for her work on Vitamin C. Well done
everybody. A special thank you goes to the
PTG for providing a delicious lunch and our
sponsors for helping the fair to go ahead.
