Curiosity, especially passionate curiosity, is a powerful driving force. To pique the curiosity of the students in the subject of Science, BMC-Girls arranged a Science Fair where\u00a0aspiring scientists displayed their projects. The main aim behind the fair was to develop 21st<\/sup>\u00a0century skills of students. Students collaborated in groups and with the help of their critical thinking skills created outstanding scientific models. Their models depicted how Science has impacted our lives.<\/p>\n

There was a complete section on \u201cWomen and Space\u201d which turned out to be a great motivational factor for our students. Another unique aspect of the fair was a section dedicated to \u201cIslam and Science\u201d where various scientific concepts like water conservation, water cycle and rockets were explained with reference to Quran. The mention of elements of the periodic table in the Quran was also discussed.<\/p>\n

Our students managed to impress the very honorable Chief Guest, Deputy Commissioner Islamabad Mr. Muhammad Hamza Shafqaat<\/a> by explaining their projects and demonstrating their working models related to particle Physics, rockets, robots and elephant toothpaste!<\/p>\n

The event was indeed a memorable one which students will remember for a long time.<\/p>\n
