The objective of the science program is to develop each child’s natural sense of wonder and invite them to find answers to some of their “Why’s”. Each classroom contains many materials with which to explore various aspects of science.

Typical experiments include the classification of objects (sinko and float, living and non-living, magnetic and non-magnetic), and oservation and charting (the progress of a banana peel in our very own compost jar.)

There are also specialized units of study focusing on specific subject areas such as astronomy, anatomy, and dinosaurs.
