The book is from fairfield publisher, with a cover picture of two parrots with a blue or pink background.

Hi pixiedust

So far dd had completed two set of the assessments and some quesitons like food web, electrical, light and energy ete are quite relevent to what they have studied. There are also challenging questions beyong her knolwedge but the explanation part is quite helpful.

Tell her not to worry about those question that she may not understand now as we can still keep this book when she move up to Secondary school.

We take it as the supplement to those P6 prelim paper MCQ.

Hope the abvoe inforamtion is helpful.

My DS is selected by his school to attend science olympiad lessons, conducted by 3rd party vendor. He is in P3.


Anyone knows what are the Science Olympiad competition available for 2012? & for which level?

I believe cchew's post on page 3 is still relevant except for the dates and venue, of course. Each school can sign up to 7 pupils.

Thanks aqeqiq for pointing me to the right source. I've managed to re-read cchew's post and on SPSO.
The Science Olympiad competition organized by SPSO is for P5 only and it's conducted annually.

Haha, so the science enrichment lessons my DS will be attending has nothing to do with this year Science Olympaid competition.

By the way, which science enrichment centre is strong at science olympaid competition training? DS is currently doing MO class @Math Arena and he is showing strong interest in Science as well. I am still thinking hard and trying to justify if I should send him for science olympaid class... He's been bugging me for it as he is currently not attending any science tuition/enrichment class.

Does Math Arena cover science?

Hi JAR,

Wow, good to hear that your ds is taking a strong interest in math and science. Sorry but I don't know which centre is strong in science Olympiad training. Maybe some other parents here can help. This is my first time encountering this competition, you see.

So far, I understand Math Arena only offer P3 science programme which is not really science olympaid based.
As Science Olympaid is very new to me, and I can't really find alots of information on it, thus turn to KS forum to ask for more tips from experienced parents.
