Why does salt melt ice? CGS Science Fair finds the answers

It was a busy week for CGS scientists last week. They had been charged with answering puzzling questions. Why does salt melt ice, where do the stars go during the day, what’s the effect of temperature on water volume and what are eggs made of? CGS students presented their findings to judges, teachers, parents and their peers at the 2018 CGS Science Fair. The young scientists were well prepared and knew their experiments back to front. It was very clear how much fun they had discovering the answers. It was especially wonderful to see the peer-to-peer learning that took place. The Science Fair is mandatory for Grades 1-3 students and optional for SK students. There were 12 SK students presenting this year, the most ever. Congratulations to all. May your love of science continue to grow. For more information about Children’s Garden School on Eglinton contact Kelly Scott, Director of Admission at CGS at kscott@cgsschool.com.
