Wishing Everyone A Happy Holidays!

To those who celebrate, here's wishing you a Merry Christmas and to everyone, do have a Happy New Year!

Your Troop leaders hope you're having a fun school holiday and are all set for the new school year. 2010 is going to be exciting because other than recruiting our FOURTH Troop for the Petrosains Science Scouts, we will in January launch the Senior Science Scouts that's specially designed for Science Scouts who will be in Secondary school.

And for Troop 3 members, don't forget to apply to join Troop 4! We have 5 seats reserved for you.

Check back here now and then for updates and let us know how you've been doing. Monthly challenges will also start again in January 2010!

Take care everyone and we'll see all of you again soon.

Calling Troop 3 Science Scouts! Join us again in Troop 4!

Specially for Troop 3, we are inviting interested Science Scouts to apply to join Troop 4 in 2010! To be eligible, you must meet the following criteria:

ABOUT THE PETROSAINS SCIENCE SCOUTS
The Petrosains Science Scouts is an innovative after-school programme offered by Petrosains Sdn. Bhd. that lets Primary school-goers experience science by engaging them in fun learning activities using the Petrosains approach of being Hands-on, Minds-on, and Hearts-on!

With meetings held on alternate Saturdays from 10am to 1pm, this year-long programme offers a rich informal learning experience in science and technology that extends beyond the classroom and continues all the way to Secondary school.

This long-term learning engagement couples immersive face-to-face interaction with online and take-home activities while being facilitated by a team of trained and experienced educators.

Whether it’s travelling to the past to learn about the dinosaurs, taking a step into the future to wonder about future sciences, or staying rooted in the present and finding ways to be a green citizen of Planet Earth, the Petrosains Science Scouts will bring the wonders of science to life; a true embodiment of the Petrosains approach.
