Bill Pauley has seen a lot of science fair projects over the years. Nevertheless, this year's entries at Parkdale School didn't fail to impress him. "The quality was good," said Pauley, the school's principal. "I was really impressed with the effort." There were about 35 entries in the science fair, held last week. All students in grades 6 and up were required to create a project as part of their curriculum; however, not all students chose to enter their projects in the fair. Pauley said he would have liked to have seen more of those projects entered, saying they too were of a high quality. Judging for the fair was conducted by six community members, including retired teachers, HBMS representatives, and Hapnot Collegiate students. Here are the winners: Grade 4 First - Stephanie Simon and Megan Davis, Lava Light Second - Joel Kitchen, Air Cars Third - No third place was awarded Grade 5 First - Erin Hall, Making A Chemical Pie Second - No second place was awarded Third - No third place was awarded Grade 6 First - Alex Lofgren and Mari Lawrence, Colour Confusion Second - Jeff Yao and Parker James, Acid Or Base Third - Joey Rideout and Michael Thompson, Caffeinated Typing Honourable Mention - Danielle McIntyre and Erika Rowe, Eggs-tra Bounce Honourable Mention - Travis Dominey, Asthma Grade 7 First - Paige Kowal, Too Much Noise Second - Michael Galay, Snow?
