Science
The children from Foundation to Grade six experience concepts related to Biological Science (living things), Chemical Science (materials and change), Earth and space sciences and Physical sciences, (heat, light, electricity, forces). Experiences are based on hands on learning, with students encouraged to predict then explain findings. From Preps making “slimy goo” to grade 5/6 students using microscopes to examine mould grown under varying conditions, the children have opportunity for many science based experiences.
Each year families are invited to our Family Science Night, and bi-annually the children can enter the TPS Science Talent Search. Our classroom science is also supported by related incursions and excursions.
