At Findon Primary School, we are excited to provide students with hands-on, engaging experiences in our dedicated STEM classroom. STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) is more than just a subject, it’s about developing the skills students need for the future which involves problem-solving, creativity, teamwork, and critical thinking.
Throughout the year, students will take part in exciting projects using the engineering design process aligned with the Victorian Curriculum. This is a step-by-step approach where they ask, imagine, plan, create, test, and improve creations which helps them learn to think like engineers and scientists, tackling real-world challenges in fun and meaningful ways.
A key part of our STEM program is Digital Technologies. Students learn to code through creative projects such as storyboards, races, and games, developing logical thinking and problem-solving skills along the way. They also explore hardware, learning how to code and control a variety of devices, from robotics to interactive systems, gaining a deeper understanding of how technology works in the world around them.
