Sorry Tinkerbelle, Im not of much help. I've never heard of this workshop. Looks like DS would have enjoyed if he had the chance. Did your DD register for this thru her school? You might try posting this query in the Sec School paernts network - ACSI. Hope you get some response.

Hi Tisha,
4 teams of 4 students will represent the sch for this science workshop. Registration is done by the sch. Dunno much info yet. Will let you know the details when I know...just in case your DS is interested.
oh ya, didn't think to post this query in the AC sec thread. Thanks.

There was a Sc workshop at ACJC last yr. My girl attended, got to pay $25,it's open to quite a lot of pri sch. During the workshop, the seniors guide them,or demonstrate some Sc expt etc.Should be about the same this yr. Last yr, one of the activities was to go on nature trail at botanic garden, but due to heavy rain, it was cancelled. It's not really a competition, just some fun activities, the prizes are just a token to round up the activities.

Hi sall,

Thanks so much for sharing. Sounds like fun. Is your DD's workshop conducted in 4 sessions over 4 weeks? DD told me hers is and each session is 2hr15 mins.

Hi Brenda,

So kind of the teacher to give your DD a break over the weekend just before CNY. Maybe she knows parents will be out shopping for last minute goodies...

Hi Brenda,

I still haven't bought new clothes for my DDs. Aiyo, never learn my lesson...always buy last minute. Hope we can find something.
DH & I wanted to bring DDs to Chinatown today but they are not keen. Too crowded!!

Hi Lynn,
DD only has 1 pg of maths worksheet. Looks like it'll be nice and relaxing weekend of her.

Ya, heard from friends that enrichment centres are also closed for the festive season. Let us all enjoy the new year celebrations. :celebrate:

Hi Tinkerbelle

DD bought two blouse and two skirts from OG today. These were under Homegrown and sold at offer price. I think is quite worth as the total price was about $61.00. We went afternoon and lucky at that time still not that crowded.
