Science Overview

Our Science curriculum ignites curiosity and encourages children to explore the wonders of the world around them. Through hands-on experiments, investigations, and observations, pupils learn to ask questions, test hypotheses, and discover scientific principles. We cover biology, chemistry, and physics, fostering a love of discovery and an understanding of how the world works.
