Never knew primary schools taught science, at least none of mine have.
It's a good topic to debate about actually, but I really don't believe it should be a subject in primary schools. Even in year 7,8 and 10 I do not remember a single fact from Science class apart from the word photosynthesis. Most students loathe science including myself and I can't imagine primary school children being interested in Science, nor do they have sufficiently developed minds to understand science.

Although, it could be beneficial as it could be a good starting point to grasp the fundamentals of common science topics.

I'm not really one to have a strong opinion on the matter though.
