Science

Course Description

Science is a core subject for all Year 10 students. The year-long program builds on the Middle School curriculum through greater depth, rigour and independence across Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Psychology and Ecology.

The course prepares students for VCE or the International Baccalaureate by developing the knowledge, skills and study routines required for senior Science. Students complete practical investigations, data analysis, extended responses, examination-style tasks and formal examinations.

Students also undertake an independent investigation based on their interests, with opportunities to draw on experiences and information gathered during the extended expedition.
