Science

Curriculum Statement:

Children at Grove Road are on a scientific adventure to explore and understand the world around them. As they journey through the Science Curriculum, our children make significant and educated decisions, impacting their health, planet and environment. Awe and wonder are the gateway into all Science lessons: we nurture our children’s passion and innate curiosity as they question ‘how do spiders walk on the ceiling?’ or ‘how far away is Mars?’ The children’s wonder for the world provides them with a foundation for discovery. Children partake in purposeful investigations, working scientifically to determine, for example, ‘which material will make the best umbrella for Mr Parkhouse?’ Lessons are ‘hands on and minds on’ and the 5 scientific enquiry types are placed at the heart of our childrens’ learning.
