NDMC School Science Fair: 2014-2015

Science has played a crucial role in the development of human society from the cave man to the highly technologically advanced societies of today. The world has shrunk in size. Science has in fact developed a concept of Universal Brotherhood and the barriers created due to race, color, cast, are fading fast.

The lasts decade has seen many changes in the science curriculum of our country. Emphasis has been shifted from contents to the ‘process of science’. While working for science models/projects, the students not only indulge in creativity but also develop various scientific skills in the process.  Science inculcates scientific attitude. Science exhibitions give them an opportunity to exchange their novel ideas and techniques with other students and teachers and thus help to nurture future scientists.

Keeping in view this vital role of science the Education Department of NDMC organizes annually a Science & Work Experience exhibition for all the schools under its control from Nursery to Sr. Secondary level including Navyug & Aided schools.

The Science Fair is divided into four streams. i.e.

1          Science            2          Work Experience      3          Nursery Exhibition
