From April 16 to April 18, 2026, the Terengganu International Science Fair was held at Universiti Malaysia Terengganu, which had participants and innovation enthusiasts from various backgrounds.

A particularly proud moment during this year’s fair was for SMK Taman Selesa Jaya in Johor, where four talented Indian students showcased their exceptional scientific skills and creativity. These students not only represented their school with pride but also earned several awards for their outstanding projects.
Kirthika Muthu Kumaran (3 Amanah) received a Gold Award for her innovative project, along with the prestigious Best Presentation Award.

These students’ achievements not only represent a proud moment for their school but also serve as an inspiration for future generations to excel in the fields of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM).
