Des élèves suisses décorés aux Olympiades de physique en Estonie
Du 26 au 28 avril, la Suisse a participé aux Olympiades nordiques et baltes de physique en tant que pays hôte. Pour quatre champions des Olympiades suisses de physique, qui ont renoncé à participer aux Olympiades internationales de physique prévues cette année en Iran, la compétition a offert une autre chance d'échanger et de se mesurer à des jeunes du même âge venus du monde entier. Résultat : deux inscriptions d'honneur, une médaille de bronze et des souvenirs impérissables.
