A Glimpse about NOS Science Clubs:
The NOS Science Clubs aim to link what our children are learning in class with scientific and empirical realities, develop students’ interest in scientific research and innovation, discover their scientific interests and encourage teamwork and student social interaction. Club members participate in different local and global competitions and conferences, lectures, screen scientific films and organize field trips inside and outside Jordan.
