Brunswick Park Primary School – Science
We live in an increasingly scientific and technological world where children need to acquire the knowledge, skills and attitudes to prepare them for life in the 21st century. We at Brunswick Park Primary School believe that the teaching of Science builds onto children’s natural curiosity and interest in the world, and fosters in them a respect for the environment.
Science inspires and enhances children’s curiosity about the world around them. Through Science, children understand how major scientific ideas contribute to technology, thus impacting on current businesses, medicines and improving quality of life. It aims to stimulate their curiosity in finding out why things happen in the way they do. It teaches methods to stimulate creative thought. Children will learn to ask questions to be able to appreciate the way in which Science will affect the future personally, nationally and globally.
