Science

Why Science?

Our children will learn this because we want to grow the natural curiosity and enquiry within them, creating a desire to explore and question the hows and whys of the world around them.  We think it is important for them to learn this because science helps prepare children for their life through experiences and exploration of the world in which they live in; discovering, explaining and developing skills of enquiry through working scientifically.

We teach Science using a scheme called Snap Science. 

Our lessons deliver science learning through enquiry based learning, giving our children the opportunity to answer a question through a range of practical challenges using the scientific enquiry skills.
