Discover and Stir (STEAM)
Ages 3 - 12 1 Hr/Lesson 1 Lesson/Week Max 6
This hands-on science course invites to explore the natural world through age-appropriate experiments, observations, models, creative projects, and group activities. Students discover not only what happens in the world around them, but also how and why. One class each month includes a fun cooking activity that connects science with nutrition, measurement, food origins, and healthy living. This balanced, holistic approach fosters curiosity, scientific thinking, creativity, and an appreciation for nature and personal well-being.
Cooking Lesson
measurement, nutrition, and where food comes from.
Levels
Ages 3 – 5
Sensory exploration and simple experiments. Float or sink, hot or cold, seeds and growing things, the five senses. Focus on observing carefully and describing what they see.
Ages 5 – 8
Children start asking their own questions and testing them. Weather, plants and animals, magnets, light and shadow, simple chemical reactions. Learning to predict, then check.
Ages 8 – 12
Multi-step investigations with fair tests and recorded results. Body systems, ecosystems, forces, states of matter, and nutrition. Team challenges where they must explain their findings.
Course Features
Science They Can See Happen
Children don't read that oil and water separate — they watch it, then work out why. What they discover themselves, they remember.
Predict, Test, Explain
Every experiment starts with a guess and ends with a reason. This is the scientific method, taught as a habit rather than a diagram.
Enjoys Cooking
Children make something they actually want to eat — pancakes, dumplings, cookies, egg tarts — then find out why the batter rose, why the dough stretched, and where each ingredient came from. Chemistry you get to eat.
A Wrong Guess Is Still Useful
When a prediction fails, that's information. Children learn to change one thing, test again, and stay interested in the answer.

Monthly progress report: certificate of completion for each level.
Our Syllabus
Animals and Habitats
Children study animals’ physical characteristics, basic needs, life cycles, and adaptations. They also explore how different habitats provide food, water, shelter, and space.
Animals and Habitats
Earth and Environmental Science
Children investigate soil, rocks, landforms, and natural resources while learning how human actions affect the environment. Activities encourage appreciation and responsible care for the natural world.
Earth and Environmental Science
Food, Nutrition, and Growth
Children explore where food comes from, how it supports the body, and how plants and animals contribute to our meals. Activities connect natural science, nutrition, agriculture, and cooking.
Food, Nutrition, and Growth
The Human Body and Healthy Living
Children learn about the senses, movement, breathing, digestion, and the basic functions of the human body. Lessons connect these concepts with nutrition, hygiene, exercise, and healthy choices.
The Human Body and Healthy Living
How They Grow?
Curiosity
Asking better questions, not just more of them.
Careful Observation
Noticing small changes others miss.
Reasoning
Explaining why, with evidence.
Patience
Waiting three weeks for a result.
Collaboration
Running an experiment as a team.
Parent Testimonials
"I was not sure a 4-year-old could do experiments. She now tells me which things float in the bath and why."
Mrs. C.
mother of a K2 student
"The cooking class changed how he eats. He wants to know what is in his food now."
Ms. W.
mother of a K3 student
"He asks so many questions I cannot answer. Now he has somewhere to take them."
Mr. H.
father of a P3 student
"She grew beans on our windowsill and checked them every morning for a month."
Mrs. N.
mother of a P1 student
"She looks forward to the cooking class every time.”
Mrs. L.
mother of a P2 student
"My daughter has no interest in worksheets, but she loves this class. She asks to come every week."
