New Science Expo & Maths Olympiad

ASESA's first ever National Science Expo and Maths Olympiad is set to take place in East London on the 02 September 2006.

Participants will be FET learners from schools of educators belonging to ASESA member-associations. The member-associations are follows:

Ø KWTDAMSTE (King William's Town)
Ø MDAMSTEDA (Mdantsane)
Ø PIMSTA (Pietermaritzburg)
Ø NOMSTE (Mogwase)
Ø MASTEDAM (Kroonstad)

ASESA will only start with the following four categories:

§ Design, Technology and Engineering
§ Biology, Earth, Medical and Environmental Sciences
§ Physical and Chemical Sciences
§ Indigenous knowledge

Learners qualify for only one project per category, and only two learners for the Olympiad. This amounts up to a team of six learners that must be accompanied by one teacher per association.

ASESA appeals to member-associations to have held their Science Expo and Olympiad, and to submit the list of winners by 01 August 2006.
