Last night Rotarians heard from Oscar Seppelt who is the recipient of the grant to attend the National Youth Science Forum next year in Brisbane.  The Forum will run from 8-19 January and will have 70 South Australian students amongst the 100 who applied.  Oscar is in year 11 at Faith Lutheran College and is presently studying biology, chemistry, maths, English, ancient history and a Certificate II at TAFE.  Upon graduating from high school he would like to study marine biology at Flinders University or James Cook University.
 
We wish Oscar well and look forward to hearing his thoughts on the Science Forum next year.
