FunKe Science kicked off the new year by reflecting on cherished memories created throughout the past year, relishing every moment like the STEM Africa festival, “Bring your child to work day” and applying physics to a moving car event.
To cap off the nostalgia, we had the privilege of witnessing an awe-inspiring planetary parade- a truly spectacular scientific event on its own
FunKe Science had the opportunity to attend the 2024 Stan chart marathon on Sunday 27th October as vendors in the kid section under Kinderville school. The day kicked off quite early as we were expected to have arrived at Uhuru Gardens at 4am in the morning in order to set up and give room for the runners to register in good time.
Not being early birds, we had quite a bit of a long morning on this day as we were to set out for Nakuru at 5:30 in the morning. The journey to Nakuru went smoothly as most of the people on our bus were asleep. We got to Melvin Jones Academy in Nakuru at around 9:30 am where we gathered in the hall for breakfast and a small orientation with guidelines on how we would go about the whole event. We attended the event as judges where we were to follow the rubric and assess the rovers the learners had made and how the rovers would move from one ravine to another with the help of the bridge they had come up with.
The whole FunKe Science team had the pleasure of attending yet another interactive event with our new partners Loho learning. The bookfair started on Wednesday 25th September and ended on Sunday 29th September and was held at Sarit Expo Centre. This was a very mind opening event as we met with different exhibitors from different companies like Sprix among others. This was a chance to advertise the STEM Africa festival not just to the learners but to parents and other interested individuals.
