Quick post that hopefully will be of interest to Primary & Secondary School students:

The RSC Bill Bryson Prize for Science Communication is an engaging and popular competition, designed to encourage and recognise clear science communication in schools and colleges.
The Bill Bryson Prize 2012 offers the chance to welcome the Olympics to the UK. In support of this major event the 2012 competition theme will be "Science and Sport”. This theme aims to celebrate the role that science and chemistry plays in supporting sport around the world. Boosting competi-tor‟s performance through improved nutrition, ensuring the integrity of competition by uncovering cheats and providing sportsmen and women the latest and most advanced equipment they need to excel, all rely on the uses and applications of chemistry and offer a rich vein of scientific ideas for entrants to explore.
The RSC Bill Bryson Prize 2012 is open to students aged 5-18 and entries can be submitted in all formats, from posters to power points to puzzles! The competition will be judged in two categories, primary school and secondary school, with both individual and group entries accepted. The best en-tries from each category will receive a cash prize of £500 for their institution, and £100 for the win-ning students to share.
All UK winners will be invited to a prize-giving ceremony in London, where the awards will be made. If the best international entry comes from a country where the RSC has a presence a local cere-mony in their home country may be organised. Note: all entries must be submitted in English.
The closing date for entries is 31 March 2012.
Entry forms are available to download and submissions should be sent to the RSC Education De-partment. An email address is also included on the entry form if you would prefer to enter by email.
