MSC Science Curriculum

Science

Our practical and relevant learning program has been designed to ensure that students are energised and enthused to learn more about their environment and the processes that occur within it. Since human life began, people have yearned to learn more about the wonders of the natural world - which is exactly what Science is all about.

Today's exciting developments in science and technology permeate every aspect of our lives and we aim to instil in our students a desire and an ability to think and to wonder.

Years 7 - 8

All students study a common course at years 7 & 8. The content of these courses is increasingly demanding in scope and students are given the opportunity to challenge and extend themselves via a range of differentiated tasks and assessments.

Years 9 - 10

All students study Science at year 9 & 10. Students study Biology, Chemistry and Physics and then do an extended investigation.

Years 11 - 12
