Science Club



 



Children today are fascinated by the what, how and why things operate. Last week Matthew asked what makes the cloud float and not fall from the sky. My answer is always the same - let’s Google to find out why. A science class I thought would be ideal to meet some of Matthew's curiosity.

NIHERST has a Science Club that caters to both junior and senior minds alike. Their programs aim to stimulate young minds for growth towards critical thinking, problem solving and to reinforce concepts taught in the primary and secondary school science curriculum.

Their classes are held at the National Science Centre located at the Corner Churchill Roosevelt Highway and Old Piarco Road, D'Abadie, Trinidad.

Juniors:                8 – 11 years

Do you believe this can foster children's love for science rather than fear it as something difficult?
