Dear students,
Astrigue is an annual Astronomy competition jointly organised by the Astronomy Clubs of RI (Year 5-6) and HCI (College). The event is targeted at secondary school students who display a keen interest in astronomy. The event comprises a series of engaging booth activities, project-making and quiz questions that will put participants’ knowledge on astronomy to the test. Through this, it hopes to create an organic environment for like-minded students sharing a passion for astronomy to engage in meaningful conversations on the subject matter. Hopefully the learning experience will allow students to gain fruitful takeaways while enjoying themselves and forging valuable ties among their peers.
