The junior section students of MES Indian School showcased exemplary talent at the interschool STEM competition recently, clinching first and third positions.
The contest was organised by EADAD International Academy and aims to highlight and celebrate outstanding achievements.
Parvez Rasool (class II-L) clinched the first prize for his innovative working models. It included a solar panel demonstrating the effective use of renewable energy for eco-friendly power generation, and a distance-sensing television screen detector that activates the screen only when a viewer is at a safe distance, thereby promoting eye safety and responsible screen usage.
Meanwhile, Ayman Abdulla (IV-L) secured the third prize for his Smart Plant Care Robot, an intelligent model that moves along a garden pathway and monitors plant health using soil moisture and light sensors, along with a mini windmill to illustrate the application of wind energy.
The students were meticulously guided and trained by teachers whose mentorship enabled them to develop innovative projects and present their ideas confidently. The project effectively combined robotics, automation, renewable energy, and plant care in a simple and meaningful STEM model.
Principal Dr Hameeda Kadar congratulated the winners and teachers, commending their commitment, teamwork, and outstanding performance.
