The moment I walked in I was bombarded by what seemed like thousands of very proud students, their family’s and in some cases their teachers. Turns out that there were over 3200 students participating in 2019’s Science Talent Search. My eye was immediately captured the moment I walked in the door by some incredible photography, Posters and very intriguing essays that I itched to get my hands on and read. However, I could only glance at them as there was so much to see with very little time. It was great that the students were there to talk to. They were able to give me a snapshot of their projects and the learning they undertook. So many interesting and diverse topics falling under the overall theme of ‘Destination moon: more missions more science’ It was clear to me that this was the best way for a teacher to engage their students in science outside of the classroom and involve families in their students learning. For the most part the teachers provided the spark and the students independently (with the support of their families) carried it off and produced many amazing entries. There was a large array of different projects that I interacted with over the day. There were models and inventions, posters about living on the moon, board games I could see myself playing for hours, essays with catchy titles and so many more things. The talent was abound. It was amazing to see so many students curious about how things worked and the different ways in which they solved problems. I eagerly await 2020s Science Talent Search with its theme of ‘Deep Blue: innovations for the future of our oceans’ Thankyou to all who participated and supported 2019’s Science Talent Search 2 Let’s Find Out Vol 37 • No. 1 • 2020 President’s viewpoint Alexandra Abela, STAV President It is with pride and pleasure that I awards for inspirational students and teachers.
