SHHC hosted its first ever Omni Fair this spring with great success!
What is an Omni Fair? Basically it is a science fair that is not limited to only science projects. The project categories included: science, history, geography, literature and art. Projects were grouped by age and were reviewed or not according to each participant’s preference.
A group of four independent judges critique the reviewed projects, and there were first place and honorable mention awards in each age group (3rd-5th and 6th & up) as well as participation awards for everyone. A ‘scavenger hunt’ was held which encouraged guests at the Fair to search through the projects for answers to questions that each project participant had provided.
In addition , the spring Pinewood Derby class held a race with the derby cars they had made this semester. Competition was fierce but fun! All the kids loved their trophies!
To round out the evening, there was a short program which featured musical and oral recitations from students as well as a set of commercial clips produced by this spring’s History of Film class.
All in all, it was a great night for SHHC students and families. We look forward to an even bigger and better Omni Fair next spring!
