Science4U presentations

Friday June 13, the understudies of Stedelijk Gymnasium Leiden introduced their Science4U ventures. Amongst no-nonsense science ventures like foundational microorganism research, DNA-treatment and metamaterials, “our” Science4U understudies Lidewij, Jitske, Herman and Marlies introduced their reproduction of the scene of a little site close Venhuizen in West-Frisia. It was an exceptional presentation with an extremely smooth Prezi. Well done! One year from now we will again offer the chance to four understudies to take an interest in our examination bunch.
