School Science Fair A ‘Phenomenal Success’

[Written by Bermuda Institute student Halle Teart]

Bermuda Institute held its biannual Science Fair on Wednesday, April 5, 2017. This year the theme was, “Science in Creation,” and student projects exhibited the various days of creation, and showcased displays from Kindergarten to grade twelve.

The Bermuda Institute Steel band welcomed guests as they arrived and a Creation skit performed by grade twelve opened the evening. Special guests in attendance were, Michael H. Dunkley, Premier of Bermuda; Cole Simons, Minister of Education; Jeff Sousa, and Dr. Lou Matthews.

Projects included, “The Bible vs. NASA,” “Meltdown,” “Blown Away by BDA,” “The Criminalization of Blackness,” “The Blue Light Effect,” “Depression: Natural or Traditional Medicine,” and many more. The science fair was a phenomenal success and received all favorable commendations from those in attendance.
