Rotary Science Forum & a THANK YOU for RCoN
Warwick Leyland passed on this heartfelt thank you below.....
Tēnā koutou,
I would like to express my gratitude for granting me a scholarship to attend this Rotary Science and Technology Forum. It was an experience that I will never forget in my years of secondary school. I am grateful for the opportunity to meet new people and professors who happily shared their experiences of how they managed university life.
One key highlight of this Summer camp was being able to attend several lectures, in particular microbiology. I never thought of how interesting microbiology is (investigating microorganisms through a microscope) until this lecture. This interested me because these tiny organisms all contain unique and special features which also play important roles in several biochemical processes such as climate change. Besides microbiology, everything flowed smoothly from the very beginning of the two weeks, right to the end of it all. It was easy to bond and make friendships with everyone, because we all shared similar interests with each other, which created easy conversations.
Once again, thank you all for this great opportunity of being exposed to a range of careers in Science. It was truly an amazing time and could not ask for a better experience with like-minded friends.
