(MENAFN- The Peninsula)
Five schools from across Qatar have qualified for the finals of the Qatar e-Nature Schools Competition 2017. 63 students from 21 private and Independent Schools participated in the semi-finals, which took place last week at the Maymouna Primary Independent School for Girls.
The finals and awards ceremony will take place on April 25 at The Westin Hotel.
The five qualifying schools that have progressed to the finals are: Elite International School; Al Khansaa Primary Independent School for Girls; Alshaqab Primary Independent School for Girls; Abu Hanifa Model Independent School for Boys; and Nord Anglia International School Al Khor.
The quarter and semi-final rounds were filled with competitive spirit and suspense. This year's questions were more challenging, testing the teams' assertiveness, team work skills and showcasing their knowledge of birds, insects, flora, reptiles, mammals, marine life and nature reserves in Qatar.
Preparations for the final rounds have already begun, as the qualifying schools are all eager to be recognised as the winner of the 2017 Qatar e-Nature schools contest.
The event organisers, high-profile public figures and media personnel are all expected to attend the highly-anticipated event. The Qatar e-Nature schools contest is organised by Sasol, the Ministry of Education and Higher Education, and Friends of the Environment Centre. This contest allows students to actively learn about Qatar's beautiful and diverse wildlife.
The user-friendly Qatar e-Nature app is available for download free on Apple Store, Google Play store, Windows Phone Store and on the website (www.enature.qa).
