Congratulations to all the winning teams. Congratulations also to the other teams who have put their best efforts in these competitions.
Special mention is given to SMK Simpang Empat, the biggest winner of the AEROFAIR 2016 program, for winning the first place prizes in the Water Rocket and Multimedia competitions, and the second place prize in the Exhibition competition. Their video below shows the exemplary dedication to this AEROFAIR 2016 program given by their teachers and students, who have conducted workshops and seminars on Indoor Flight and Water Rocket not only to other students in their school, but have also invited other students from neighboring schools to benefit from these activities. Kudos to them!!!
