Over 400 grade 4 to 12 students attended the 48th annual Manitoba Schools Science Symposium (MSSS) at the Max Bell Centre on the University of Manitoba campus from Friday, April 26th to Sunday, April 28th, 2019. On Friday, the students participated in interactive and hands-on science activities designed to stimulate their interest in Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math (STEAM). On Saturday, the students presented their projects and received feedback from over 150 judges hailing from industry and academia. The winners were announced on Sunday during the Grand Awards Ceremony. Doctors Manitoba sponsored the awards for the Best Group and Individual projects at each grade level, as well as three of the MSSS representatives for the Canada-Wide Science Fair that was held in May, in Fredericton, New Brunswick.
