Winning the Science Exhibition!

I never got selected to participate in the finals for the science exhibition for 5 years in a row. Most of the schools in the world have their science exhibitions straight away and who explains the best and brings a good model wins. But the rules are different in our school. First, we have a selection round and then who explains the best and has the best model gets selected for the final round.

Artificial Satellite

All these years I had explained well but I never had time to make a good model. So, that is the reason why I could not get selected for so many years. But this year fortunately I had the time to make my own.  The topic was about the artificial satellite. So I made a  model of the communication satellite. This time I also explained well and also had a good model. So, I got selected to participate in the final round for the science exhibition.

Finally the day had come!!!! I had my model ready and my presentation too.  At the school, we had to stay the full day at school and we only had to bring our lunchboxes [in India, we usually bring our lunch from home] and our water bottles. It took a long time for the judges to arrive but as soon as they arrived, they began to start assessing every model. There were a lot of models that were better than mine. But they lacked explaining. Mine was good. So, my overall marks were 8 for 10 which was good enough to get me the 3^rd prize. I was shocked to hear my name being called ‘Aayush Anand gets 3^rd prize’. I was so happy to hear my name on the stage.  That day was the happiest day of my life.
