From a smart security system to an automatic watering system with a soil moisture sensor to support farmers, Norbugang Central School in Samtse presented a range of creative solutions aimed at tackling real-life challenges. Around 20 innovative ideas were showcased during a recent STEM exhibition in the school.

It was a day of innovation and imagination in Norbugang Central School, as students turned ideas into impact.

From high-tech security solutions to smart farming tools, the STEM exhibition had it all.

Bivek Powdyel, a student said “Personally, for me, coming from a farming background, I have noticed an issue regarding the timely watering of the plants. And this system here will help us in solving that. The system will water the plants when it is needed and the amount of the water needed will also be managed automatically.”

Benita Ghalley, another student said “This project, called the Electric Fencing Module, is designed to help farmers protect their crops from wildlife and intruders. The system uses proximity sensors to alert villagers when someone approaches their area, giving them a heads-up before any entry.”

Likewise, Pema Yoezer, also a student said “My project focuses on creating plastic roads, with the main aim of using plastic waste to build durable and environmentally friendly roads. This initiative not only helps improve road quality but also contributes to a clean and green environment.”

The organisers said the event is a celebration of creativity, problem-solving, and hands-on learning.

Ajit Sherpa, Vice Principal of Norbugang Central School said “The main purpose of this exhibition is to promote and enhance STEM subjects, particularly science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. While we have been teaching according to the curriculum, we believe it’s equally important to organize such programmes. This exhibition served as a platform for students to showcase their talents and creativity.”

The exhibition also featured soap making, blood group testing, the use of GPS technology, a wearable calorie monitor, line-following and obstacle-avoiding robots, a touchless water dispenser, and an intelligent perimeter security system, among others.

What’s even more exciting is that the students behind these projects are confident that they can turn their ideas into reality, given the right materials and support. With that drive, it is only a matter of time before one of these innovations could be the next big breakthrough.
