Science
We believe that Science is a vital part of everyday life and teaching it through fascinating and practical approaches can inspire children. We strive to develop a sense of excitement, passion and curiosity about natural phenomena.
Our curriculum enhances the children’s scientific understanding and knowledge both independently and collaboratively. Our aim is to encourage the children to be inquisitive in Science and predict, explore and explain their own findings.
‘The important thing is to never stop questioning’ ― Albert Einstein.

Science Topics
British Science Week 2023
The theme for British Science Week 2023 was ‘Connections’. Our school focused on making connections between the science curriculum and science in ‘the real world’. The idea behind this was to bring Science to life, transforming it from simply learning the facts, to linking these facts to real world situations and being inspired to dive deeper into the wonderful world of ‘Science’!
