INTRODUCTION
If you're curious about how the world works, studying science is your chance to dive into some seriously cool stuff! Whether it’s learning how plants grow, exploring space, understanding how the human body functions, or figuring out why the weather changes, science gives you the tools to explore everything around you. You’ll get to do experiments, work with cool tech, and even come up with your own theories to test. It’s all about discovering new things and asking "what if?" to find answers that can change the world.
Studying science opens up a ton of opportunities for the future! Whether you want to become a doctor, engineer, environmentalist, or even a space scientist, the skills you learn in science—like problem-solving, critical thinking, and teamwork—are super valuable.
FACILITIES
Our science department consists of three large science laboratories, equipped with gas fitted workbenches and sinks. It also has a preparation room and chemical store. Each room has a large interactive screen to aid learning and teaching as well as a set of Chromebooks for IT related work.
