This club which is governed by the motto "Imagine, Invent, Inspire" purpose is to increase students' knowledge of science by providing them with opportunities to improve their scientific skills. This club provides an environment in which students can discuss their ideas about creating scientific projects using technology and other material available to them. Students participate in a wide range of activities and experiments that allow them to learn about all scopes of science (Biology, Chemistry, Physics) which provides them with the opportunity to develop and improve their scientific skills. This club also seeks to expose and educate students about the areas of studies and professions that are available in the science field.
