On the 13th of May, four of Nyanga’s Grade 10s attended the annual Innovation Challenge hosted by HIP2B2. At the event, the learners got to meet and spend an innovative afternoon with fellow learners from all over Cape Town, who are taking pure Maths and Science as school subjects.

The Innovation Challenges seeks to introduce learners to the fun side of Maths and Science, all the while giving guidance on how these subjects lay foundations for careers in fields of technology, health care, safety and transport.

One of the learners had the following to say:

I had a great time especially while we were designing a dress and a candle stick. What I liked the most was that we worked as a team and everyone was participating.

A huge thank you to our partners at HIP2B2 for inviting ikamvanites to share in this brilliant initiative
