Science at Bosbury

 

 

Being a Scientist at Bosbury CE Primary School

Children are natural born scientists, having a curiosity about the world around them and a passion for exploration and discovery.

At Bosbury CE Primary School, we endeavour to nurture the scientist in each child by providing opportunities to use scientific knowledge, investigation and discovery to help them make sense of the world around them.

Understanding the process of investigative Science enables our children to believe they can make a lifelong difference in the world they live in. Using their environment, learning about scientists and scientific discoveries and experiencing visits and visitors brings the relevance of this magical subject alive for our children.

- Mrs S Dark (Bosbury CE Primary School Science Lead)

 

"Pupils talk about their science lessons enthusiastically. They are even able to tell inspectors about the role osmosis plays in plant respiration!" - OFSTED, September 2024       

Our clever young scientists at Bosbury say that:

“Science is fun!”

“When we are scientists, we find out things and test them out.”

“I want to work for NASA when I grow up.”

“I love setting up investigations!”

"Space is my favourite school topic - I find it really interesting and love learning about it."
