EDUERA
The Science fair is a complete event, hosted by schools worldwide. The distinguishing characteristic of a science fair is that project entries employ the scientific method to test a hypothesis. Science fairs are not exhibits or mere displays of projects. Students present their science project results in the form of a report, display board, and/or models that they have created. Science fairs allow students in elementary, middle, and high schools to compete in science and/or technology activities. The goal of a science fair is for students to answer a question based on a hypothesis. Students then work on science fair projects in addition to their school work. Therefore, most science fair entries are usually modified versions of existing experiments. Display boards help communicate the nuances of a project to science fair judges, visitors, and other entrants
INVESTITURE CEREMONY

The selected students are honored with their respective badges such as Head Girl, Head Boy, Sports Captain, and the student council members take an oath to faithfully work for the school. Our Chairperson also encourages them to put in honest efforts for every endeavor and become an inspiration for others.
