Dungarvin Indiana Holds First Science Fair

The first Dungarvin Indiana Science Fair was held on April 12th at the Indianapolis World Sports Park and it was a huge success!
The excitement in the air was buzzing as guests were examining, listening, and learning about all the unique science projects. “Oohs!” and “Ahhs!” were audible around the room as the groups put on their presentations for each guest. Each guest received two voting tokens and were able to vote for whichever two science experiments they enjoyed the most. The guests learned about exciting topics like non-Newtonian materials, how to make a crystal gardens, and much more! We would like to say thank you to all of the groups that entered projects into the science fair; we couldn’t have made it such a success without you. Check out more photos from the activity below:

Dennis, Sarah, and Janelle worked on creating a Crystal Garden out of minerals. The group came all the way down from the Crown Point Day Center.

Colleen, Danielle, and Sarah pose by their science project. The group created a non-Newtonian material, which is a liquid but turns into a solid when pressure is applied.

Amy, Kristin, and Corinne joined forces as The Bottle Busters. The group used vinegar and baking soda to inflate balloons and create stress balls.

Winston, Randall, Kimmils, and Megan pose with their science fair project. The group traveled down from the Highland Day Center to attend the science fair.

Trey, Justin, Brooklyn, Chris, and Matthew pose with their science project. The group used yeast, dish soap, and vinegar to create an elephant toothpaste! The group rightfully named themselves The Orally Hygienic Elephants.

Colleen watches with amazement and joy as the elephant toothpaste foamed up and out of the vase, filling the surrounding container.

Megan and Winston have fun learning about the non-Newtonian material in the bowl. The material is both a liquid and a solid.

Mykaela placed fourth with her rainbow experiment. Mykaela won some Indianapolis Indians fan gear and tickets to an upcoming game.

Dennis, Sarah and Janelle, won third place with their Crystal Garden experiment! The group received multiple giftcards for their win.

The Bottle Busters placed second with their experiment. The group won Pacers tickets and gear for the games.
Monica C. Williams,
Great Job!!
