ln this Area of Learning and Experience, our learners will have the opportunity to explore the disciplines of Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Design and Technology and digital technologies. Through these disciplines, our learners will have the opportunity to become curious and creative individuals. In lessons, our learners will explore Science and Technology to develop practical skills and knowledge, develop their ability to ask meaningful questions and make informed judgments that impact their own behaviours. They will also understand how Design thinking and engineering offer technical and creative ways to meet society’s needs and wants as well as recognising that Computation is the foundation for our digital world.
By clicking on the links below, you’ll see a detailed overview of our themes for each discipline of Science and Technology over three terms.
