Aboriginal Science Fair Celebration

MISTIC hosted the 2nd year of the Aboriginal Science Fair Celebration, a pilot project in partnership with School District 72 Campbell River and the Science Fair Foundation of BC. This science fair celebration showcased 148 science projects from 180 students from three elementary schools in Campbell River. The projects highlighted Aboriginal science, technology and traditional ways of knowing.
Special Thanks
