Eskom Expo for Young Scientists is hosting regional science fairs across South Africa, providing a platform for young scientists.
These fairs offer learners in Gr. 4 to Gr. 12, along with learners from the TVET Colleges that are in National Certificate (NC)2 to NC4, the opportunity to present and discuss their scientific investigations across various fields of science, technology, engineering, mathematics and innovation (STEMI).
Participants will engage with judges, teachers, learners of other schools, parents, and other interested individuals.
