Hastings Valley Science FairDo you remember when science in a classroom was all about memorising unwieldy, four-syllable words, where you had to follow instructions straight out of the textbook and raise your hand?
What makes the Hastings Science Fair project so much more is that it is such a great learning experience, where our teachers place importance in guiding students toward ideas that allow them to become part of the scientific process.
VET @ Hastings Secondary College - "It's Right Now"Students from both year 11 and 12 Hospitality performed an outstanding job in the preparation service and presentation of this catering event.
