Chemistry whizz preps others for success Year 12 Academic Prefect, Ben Anandappa, had only just returned to CBC after winning bronze at the 45th International Chemistry Olympiad in Moscow when he volunteered to help others gain the same experience. Ben sat the Australian Science Olympiad exams in 2012 and was selected to participate in a two week summer school at Monash University. Ben was then chosen as one of the top four students to represent Australia in Moscow. Inspired by this experience, Ben founded a Chemistry Olympiad preparation programme and on Tuesday afternoons voluntarily taught key concepts from the Australian Science Olympiad Syllabus, including many Year 12 level topics and beyond, and worked through the past five years of exam papers. On 7 August, Year 11 students, Mathew Thomas, Liam Romano, Solomon Wright and Anthony Iannantuoni, sat the two hour Olympiad exam. Congratulations to Matthew, Liam, Solomon and Anthony for their keen participation throughout the year and well done also to Ben for his organisation of the preparation classes. We hope to continue to run the classes next year to build on this initiative. Mathew Thomas, Ben Anandappa, Liam Romano, Anthony Iannantuoni, Dr Aidan Holohan and Solomon Wright
