We successfully concluded our District Expos at Mafolofolo High School following a venue change from Bana Bathari Special School. Learners arrived with their completed research plans and had the opportunity to receive valuable mentorship and evaluation from experts. During the sessions, evaluators identified methodological gaps, provided constructive feedback and innovative ideas, and selected outstanding projects to advance to the upcoming Regional Science Fair.

Congratulations to all participating learners and educators for their dedication and hard work. We look forward to seeing these projects shine at the next level!
