Science

Science provides a distinctive view and way of thinking about the world around us. An ever-evolving area of study, Science allows students to better understand and explain a variety of phenomena, and enable sense to be made of the biological, physical and technological world.

Here at St Paul’s we have a faculty of committed teachers who are passionate about  Science and have a wealth of skill and expertise.

Students in Years 7-10 will study the major strands of Science including Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Earth and Environmental Science. It is a practical subject and consequently has a strong emphasis on scientific inquiry and on planning and conducting experiments. This course lays the foundations for the options that are available to students in years 11 and 12.

St Paul’s is also well equipped to cater for Science students in Years 11 and 12 and offer a wide range of Stage 6 subjects such as Biology, Chemistry, Earth and Environmental Science, Physics and Investigating Science.
