Science

We want to create:

• Learners who are intrigued and enthused by the world around us, who strive to understand life, and how things work.
• Through an understanding of life and how things work, our students will be inspired to enhance their ability to develop a healthy body and mind, (be aware of health and safety with food and everyday items, have knowledge of everyday physical processes, machines and engines through the study of biological, chemical and physical processes. )
• Our science curriculum will enables students to explore and discover the world around them, confidently, so that they have a deeper understanding of the world we live in. To achieve this it involves exciting, practical hands-on experiences that help children secure and extend their scientific knowledge and vocabulary.
• We believe that these opportunities will ensure that our children are confident, life-long learners  who become better citizens through their improved involvement of the world around them.

Purpose:
