YTL Foundation dengan kerjasama Petrosains menganjurkan Lottie's Adventure Adventure, acara bertemakan STEAM di Pusat Beli-Belah Lot 10 dari 23-25 ​​November 2018 yang lalu. Pengembaraan Sains Lottie adalah yang dilancarkan oleh Tan Sri Datuk Seri Panglima Dr Abu Hassan Bin Othman, ahli Lembaga Pemegang Amanah YTL Foundation bersama Datin Kathleen Chew, Pengarah Program YTL Foundation.

Tema tahun ini dipilih untuk meningkatkan minat pelajar dalam mengikuti mata pelajaran berasaskan sains dan mempromosikan mata pelajaran STEAM di kalangan pelajar dari semua latar belakang.

"Kami mahu para pelajar mengetahui bahawa sains tidak perlu kering dan membosankan. Kami mempunyai sekumpulan peminat sains yang kreatif dan berdedikasi di sini hari ini ingin berkongsi pengetahuan mengenai bagaimana kami dapat membuat sains menyeronokkan dan menarik" kata Datin Kathleen Chew, Pengarah Program, YTL Foundation.

Sebagai Naib Canselor Universiti Sabah Malaysia sebelum ini, Tan Sri Datuk Seri Abu Hassan Bin Othman menjelaskan bahawa pelajar kita berpotensi untuk bersaing secara global, tetapi tanpa pendedahan, motivasi dan kepentingan yang betul, mereka akan ditinggalkan.

"Saya sangat gembira mendengar YTL Foundation menganjurkan 'Pengembaraan Sains', bukan hanya untuk menggalakkan sains, matematik dan kreativiti teknologi kepada pelajar, guru dan ibu bapa, tetapi untuk menunjukkan bahawa mata pelajaran berasaskan sains bukan hanya untuk jenis tertentu pelajar, ia boleh menarik semua pelajar." jelasnya.

Pada majlis itu, terdapat bengkel kayu dan sains yang diuruskan oleh Super Brain Bridge di mana pengunjung akan dapat membuat lampu meja, kipas meja USB dan juga membuat tirap. Anda juga boleh mengeluarkan Marie Curie di dalam anda dengan Akademi Sains Bridge di mana anda boleh menjalankan pelbagai jenis eksperimen dari pencampuran lendir ke ujian PH.

Petrosains mengadakan bengkel untuk membuat robot mini yang menari dan corak coretan, mewujudkan labirin marmer. Terdapat juga teka-teki matematik dan BATAK Mini Pro, mesin yang menguji reaksi anda dan koordinasi tangan anda. Pembekal lain termasuk MEREKA yang mempunyai basikal jus, Toy Libraries Malaysia yang memegang mainan mainan dan gerai pembaikan mainan, Aliran, Amazin 'Grace, Mangosteen, Supa Dupa Circus, NAGCM (Persatuan Kebangsaan Kanak-kanak Berbakat Malaysia), Jabatan Alam Sekitar dan banyak lagi.

Mainan yang dikumpulkan dalam pemacu mainan dan hasil daripada penjualan Lottie Bears akan disumbangkan kepada Perpustakaan Toy Malaysia untuk mendirikan sebuah perpustakaan mainan untuk Program 'Sekolah Dalam Hospital' di Pusat Perubatan Universiti Malaya. Hasil yang diperoleh daripada jualan Mangosteen dan Aliran akan diberikan kepada amal juga.

YTL Foundation menjemput pelajar dari tujuh sekolah awam untuk menghadiri acara itu dan setiap pelajar diberi peluang untuk menyertai bengkel tersebut.

YTL Foundation in partnership with Petrosains organised Lottie’s Science Adventure, a STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) – themed event at Lot 10 Shopping Centre from 23-25 November 2018. Lottie’s Science Adventure was launched today by Tan Sri Datuk Seri Panglima Dr Abu Hassan Bin Othman, a member of the Board of Trustees of YTL Foundation together with Datin Kathleen Chew, Programme Director of YTL Foundation.

The theme this year was chosen to increase the interest among students in pursuing science based subjects and promote STEAM subjects among students from all backgrounds. “We want students to know that science does not have to be dry and boring. We have a group of passionate, creative and dedicated science enthusiasts here today eager to share their knowledge on how we can make science fun and exciting,” said Datin Kathleen Chew, Programme Director, YTL Foundation.

As the previous Vice Chancellor of University Sabah Malaysia, Tan Sri Datuk Seri Panglima Dr Abu Hassan Bin Othman explained that our students have potential to compete globally, but without the right exposure, motivation and interest, they will be left behind. “I was very happy to hear that YTL Foundation was organising a ‘Science Adventure,’ to not only to promote science, technology math and creativity to students, teachers and parents, but to show that science based subjects is not just for certain types of students, it can be appealing to all students,” he explained.

At the event, there were woodwork and science workshops managed by Super Brain Bridge where visitors will get to create a table lamp, USB table fan and even making a catapult. You can also bring out the Marie Curie in you with Science Bridge Academy where you can carry out various types of experiments from slime mixing to PH testing.

Petrosains held workshops on making mini robot that dances and scribbles patterns, creating a marble maze. There were also math puzzles and the BATAK Mini Pro, a machine that tests your reaction and your hand-eye coordination. Other vendors included MEREKA that had a juice bicycle, Toy Libraries Malaysia which held a toy drive and a toy repair booth, Flow, Amazin’ Grace, Mangosteen, Supa Dupa Circus, NAGCM (National Association for Gifted Children Malaysia), Jabatan Alam Sekitar and many more.

Toys collected in the toy drive and the proceeds from the sale of the Lottie Bears will be donated Toy Libraries Malaysia to set up a toy library for the ‘Sekolah Dalam Hospital Programme’ in the University Malaya Medical Centre. Proceeds collected from Mangosteen and Flow sales will be given to charity as well.

YTL Foundation invited students from seven public schools to attend the event and each of the students were given the opportunity to participate in the workshops.
