DSS Expo 2009

Physical Science and Life Sciences are subjects that receive a great deal of attention in the 2nd term. The Senior Phase learners must produce an expo project. It is assessed and forms part of their term mark. Other learners are also welcome to produce projects with the aim of entering the next stage of the competition which is the Eskom Durban Expo held on 31 July 2009.

This year there was a hall full of innovative and interesting projects all of which aimed to prove something. They were assessed by a panel of judges who selected a large number of projects to be displayed at the Durban Expo. Well done to all who took part!
