Registrations are now open for the 2020 Queensland Department of Agriculture and Firsheries’ Hermitage Schools Plant Science competition and it’s free to participate!
This incredibly popular competition offers students of all ages the opportunity to complete a hands-on experimental investigation and other engaging activities (focussing on the ‘Plant Health’ theme) that will help them discover just how important protecting plant health is in sustaining life on Earth.
