Science at Willow Grove

At Willow Grove we encourage our children to ask questions about their time and experiences in school and out of school.  Our Science curriculum provides opportunities for children to develop a sense of awe and wonder and also develop a healthy curiosity in children about the world around them.  

Whilst at Willow Grove children will develop scientific knowledge which will be consolidated and built upon as they progress through school.  

Through practical scientific enquiry, our children’s scientific skills will be developed to enable them to answer their own questions with increasing independence.  Our children are encouraged to use scientific vocabulary to equip them to question, predict, explain and evaluate their world around them. 

For us here at Willow Grove, "Science is everything" and we want to foster a life-long love of science and a curiosity in the world around us in all our pupils.

Science At Home

We have launched a "padlet" with all things science for you to be able to access at home, and share with your children. The content is curated specifically for our children - with links to science online, interactive sites, and ideas of places you can go to explore science at home. 
The Padlet is a great way to bridge the gap between what your children are learning about in school and at home. Science is everything we do, and here at Willow Grove we want to make it as easy and simple as possible to encourage your children to engage with the subject.
