Interschool Science Fair at Vadodara

An Interschool Science Fair was successfully organized across our partner government schools, bringing together young innovators and their imaginative ideas. The fair featured four engaging categories: Mathematics, DIY, Working Models, and Physics. 189 students participated enthusiastically, showcasing models that reflected deep thinking, creativity, and a strong understanding of scientific concepts.

From illustrating mathematical theories with hands-on activities to demonstrating real-world applications of physics through interactive working models, the exhibits were a testament to the students’ hard work and growing scientific curiosity.

Adding to the excitement and encouragement, Ms. Neha Shah from Prakash Chemicals and Ms. Sonkee Shah, CEO of ARCH Foundation, graced the event along with the ARCH team.

The science fair was more than just a competition—it was a platform for students to build confidence, sharpen their presentation skills, and embrace a spirit of exploration.

Feedback:

I took part in the Physics category and built a hydraulic lift model using syringes, pipes, and cardboard. At first, I wasn’t sure it would work, but after a few trials and guidance from my teacher, I was able to make it functional. The best part was explaining how it works to visitors and seeing their surprised reactions! Through this science fair, I learned not just about physics but also about teamwork, managing time, and speaking with confidence. I also loved exploring the other stalls—so many of my friends had brilliant ideas. It was like a mini exhibition of innovation. I’m truly motivated to participate in more such events.”

I never imagined that I would be able to make a working science model, let alone present it in front of so many people! For the science fair, I created a windmill project that demonstrates how wind energy can be used to generate electricity. It was a completely new experience for me—I learned how to put together small parts, use simple materials, and explain the process in my own words. When the guests appreciated my model and asked me questions, I felt so proud and confident. I used to think science was a tough subject, but now I feel like I can understand it and actually enjoy it. This fair made me feel like I can do anything if I try!”
