On April 17th, ABMHS hosted the Regional Science Fair. This was the first in-person regional fair that was held since 2019 and it was so great to see all of the students presenting their work. Students from Eskasoni, Membertou, Wagmatcook, We'koqma'q and Paqtnkek attended the fair this year and they all did such a fabulous job with their projects. We are so proud of the students who participated in the Regional Science Fair and we want to extend our congratulations to the winners!
