Science

Following a Government funded upgrade in January 2024, we have introduced Science to the list of programs we offer at Samson Primary School.  The project used the current Visial Art room to make a multi-purpose learning area which will be further enhanced with the addition of new furniture and resources.

Science at Samson is based upon the national curriculum with each term devoted one main area of science.

Earth and space science (Earth’s environment and the Solar System)

Physical science (Different types of forces and energy)

Chemical science (Properties of natural and processed materials)

Biological science (Living things that grow and change)

In addition to the above, students learn the basic method of scientific inquiry with predicting, observing and finally trying to explain why changes happen.

Allowing students to have fun through the discovery of investigations and experiments is also a critical aspect of deeper learning.
