Penreach’s National Science Week was a resounding success, drawing participation from over 23 schools across the Ehlanzeni District. This educational event, held in collaboration with the University of Mpumalanga’s Student Nematology Society, aimed to enlighten learners about the critical field of Nematology and related sciences.
Throughout the week, students were introduced to various scientific disciplines, with an emphasis on Nematodes—microscopic worms that play essential roles in environmental health. Experts from Veterinary Services and research institutions provided hands-on learning experiences and insights into how these organisms affect both plant and animal health.
The event was not just about understanding Nematodes but also about opening students’ eyes to potential careers in scarce skill areas such as Plant Production, Animal Science, and Nematology. By focusing on these fields, Penreach and its partners hope to encourage students to consider these vital areas of study after completing their matriculation.
The initiative reflects a broader commitment to enhancing science education within the region, fostering a curiosity-driven approach to learning that equips learners with the knowledge and skills to pursue scientific careers, thus contributing to the future of South Africa’s scientific and agricultural sectors.
