Science and technology is mandatory for all students from Kindergarten to Year 6.
In science and technology, students explore the natural and made worlds. They learn how to apply scientific and technological skills, knowledge and understanding across a broad range of contexts.
Science provides a way of inquiring about the world around us. It explores evidence and investigates ways to discover, develop and produce solutions to real world problems. The inquiry and skill-based nature of science opens doors to ideas and discoveries.
Information technology
Our students are fortunate to have access to dedicated computer resources within each classroom.
Each class incorporates computers and technology into their lessons across all of the Key Learning Areas. Classes participate in various stage appropriate activities developing confidence and skills in:
- word processing
- communicating via the internet
- creating presentations
- using educational software.
Students also have access to a suite of iPads and other resources such as digital cameras to support their learning.
Every teacher utilises Interactive Whiteboards in their teaching providing engaging learning experiences and modelled computer use.
