At Ss. Peter and Paul's Catholic Primary school it is our intent that children develop enquiring minds through the subject of Science. They will secure good knowledge and understanding of the specific disciplines of physics, chemistry and biology. Through independent hands-on learning children will grow in confidence to ask and answer open-ended questions to find things out for themselves through scientific enquiry where they are actively involved in their own learning. We want children to be fully equipped, not only for their next steps in education but for their future careers in an ever changing scientific and technological world.

STEM week 2023

The theme for this year's STEM week was 'connections'. The children took part in a variety of learning opportunities to find out about connections in Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths. We were fortunate to have the support of our visitors, who came to share their knowledge of connections in their work.

Below are some of the children engaged in their learning.

STEM Fair 2023

We were immensely proud of Year 5, who came up with some fantastic ideas and activities for our STEM fair. Children from every class attended the STEM fair and really enjoyed learning through these exciting and well-thought out games and other activities. Well done and thank you Year 5!
