Was National Science Week successful this year? The following message to one of the NSW grantholders, Water Education Techniques SA, says it all:
“On behalf of Lemana High Dinaledi school in Limpopo I would like to thank WETsa for coming to our school during the National Science Week. The lessons and interesting experiments were far better than having to learn from a textbook - it is much easier to recall what we learned. We look forward to seeing you again.”
