It's May!

It's May and there will be an All Troops meeting on May 16! This time, we're having our annual Science Olympics! All Science Scouts from ALL TROOPS are welcomed. Troop 1 and 2 members who are coming, please send an email to Daniel or Yati.

For April, we have two Science Scouts who completed the challenge. Congratulations to Science Scout Liyana Rahimi and Science Scout Shamimi for their inventive and very interesting machine designs. Liyana has came up with a wonderful invention that switches on a light in your backpack when it's open and shuts it off when it closes. This makes it easy for you to look for things in your bag especially when it is dark. Very cool! Mimi on the other hand invented a special foldable bicycle with built in storage! Once you've cycled to school, just fold the bicycle into a trolley so you can easily move your heavy books around without ever needing to lift it. Very smart!

March and April challenge winners as well as those who took part in the 10th Anniversary Carnival, your certificates and badges are still being worked on. Badgemaster Ash has been really busy and on a few trips so please do be patient!

For May, here's the challenge:
  • We want to know how being a Science Scout has changed your life (hopefully for the better!). You can show us a photo, write us a story, or do both and tell us in your own way what has changed since you've been a Science Scout. We'll award 'Creating Wonder' badges for the stories that we find most creative (and genuine!).
  • As always, send in your entries by hand or email or post! Closing date is the end of the month!
