  To make you feel that science is all around and you can gain knowledge as well as solve many problems also be relating the learning process to the physical and social environment of the neighborhood;
  To encourage children throughout the country to visualize future of the nation and help building generation of sensitive, responsible citizens;
  To stimulate scientific temperament and learning the scientific methodology for observation, collection of data, experiment analysis arriving at conclusions and presenting the findings.
NCSC is held annually from December 27-31. After a thorough scrutiny at district and state levels, about 600 children take part in this five day long deliberations and fun-filled science activities
WHO IS ELIGIBLE?
This is a forum open to young scientists in the age group of 10-17 years as on December 31 of the calendar year. This event of NCSC is not restricted to the school-going children only but is also open for the non-school children from the marginalized sections of the society who can be involved as team members.

Activity books are available to help guide teachers and the child scientists. A group of children not exceeding 5 (five), can do the project with the help of scientists, school teachers, coordinators of school science clubs, activists of science based voluntary organizations etc. The teachers/guides receive special orientation on the theme of the CSC every year.
For NCSC-2011, the theme is 'Land Resources: Use for prosperity, save for posterity'. Under the theme you are supposed to work upon small doable projects different sub-themes -
