The International Junior Science Olympiad

The International Junior Science Olympiad is a competition for students under the age of 15 who are studying Biology, Chemistry and Physics (Natural Sciences). First carried out in Jakarta in 2004, the IJSO now promotes the development of scientific skills across borders and countries. As an encounter school, IGS supports the idea of an ​​international exchange between the currently 48 member states as it plays an important role in the development of the school. In addition to theoretical expertise, the focus of the competition is on experimentation.
In keeping with this year’s motif, “Oh Schreck, ein Fleck”, the NaWi student council, under the direction of Ms. Mai, organized four stations on November 23, 2020 and November 24, 2020, at which the young researchers tracked down ‘the devil’ by using the ingredients of different cleaning agents and observed their effect on the stains.
We are very proud to announce that the following students have qualified for the 2nd round:

Tran Thuong Van, Class 6  / Vo Ha My, Class 8 / Koeppinger, Lisa Nhat Vy, Class 8 / Nguyen Nhat Huy, Class 8 / Vo Thanh Tien, Class6 / Nguyen Hoang Nam Viet, Class 7 / Na Na Mayerhofer, Class 6 / Ngo Khanh Trinh, Class 6 /

This 2nd round is a quiz round consisting of tricky tasks covering all three sciences and will take place on March 24th, 2021. We will keep our fingers crossed for our student participants.
