This is our fifteenth year as a full Regional Fair and we continue the tradition of previous years enthusiastically. For many students the fair provides a platform outside of the confines of the classroom to explore an area of interest. Past award winning participants all agree that their participation and achievements in the fair have helped them to secure a variety of scholarships and prizes, as well as boosting their applications for places in restricted courses at tertiary institutions. The successful award winners tonight represent the best of hundreds of projects in our region from nineteen participating schools. The committee and judges have been very impressed with both the high standard of presentation of work and the ingenious and innovative nature of the investigations undertaken by students. Each exhibit represents hours of toil which often extends over a number of weeks. These projects are in most cases the result of considerable input and guidance from parents and teachers.To produce work of this calibre requires a high quality of teaching and learning – I believe that the work shown here tonight reflects very favourably on the sort of good learning that is taking place in Manukau City classrooms.
