At Childer Thornton, we develop children’s natural curiosity to build scientific knowledge.

Science Vision

Children are encouraged to ask questions that fuel explorations and investigations about the universe we live in. We strive to weave enquiry into learning; providing practical, purposeful activities to deepen children’s knowledge and understanding. We believe that understanding how things work and why things happen are key factors in preparing children for the future and opening doors into STEM careers. Children learn about key scientists relating to their topic, breaking down the stereotypical view of scientists.
