Stonehill International School
Science Bowl-2025
The Most Memorable Science Event of the Year
Since its founding in 2018 by Grade 11 science students, the Stonehill Science Bowl has grown from a school-level challenge into one of Bangalore’s and Stonehill’s signature academic events. Over the years, it has attracted wider participation, evolving into a platform for collaboration, healthy competition, and global scientific exchange. What once began as a local quiz has now evolved into a competition that inspires students to go beyond textbooks, think critically, and collaborate creatively.
This year’s Science Bowl is designed to balance accessibility and rigour. For Grades 9–12, we are hosting an international online event, welcoming students from across the globe to showcase their scientific knowledge and innovative thinking. Meanwhile, Grades 6–8 will experience the thrill of competition in person, right here on campus in Bangalore.
We aim to make 2025 our most exciting and inclusive edition yet — uniting young scientists from diverse backgrounds, testing their curiosity, and celebrating science as a shared adventure.
