‘Water – the elixir of life’ was the theme of this year’s Science Project Day at P. S. Senior Sec. School in Mylapore.
Students of class 6 to 8 celebrated the day with innovative projects.
The topic given to class 8 was marine resources.
We were thirilled when the teacher announced us the topic. We made the class look somewhat like the interior of a sea. I jumped out with joy when I was asked to do introduction to the topic and welcoming the chief guest.
This year the chief guest was Jaya Jagannath, former Principal Kendriya Vidhyalaya. The whole of 8th std made interesting projects with captions on water, life of scientists, balloons and festoons. Students made models on extraction of petroleum, bromine and other elements.
A student did a model on desalination plant.
We had a laptop, which had a video clipping depicting extraction of resources in sea. Lively aquariums added colour to the classroom. We welcomed the chief guest in the traditional way by offering a bowl full of flowers.
One of the students was made a power point presentation giving an overall picture of the class project.
