NAIDOC Week

Acknowledging the contribution of traditional landowners in Science generally happens when the class content coincides with relevant applications, contexts, and examples illustrative of this.

In both  Year 9 Ecology and Year 11 Biological Science during NAIDOC week we happened to be interested in fire management practices as part of our work on Ecosystems, which naturally led to consideration of traditional fire stick burning and other practices compared to methods common to Forestry and Conservation and Management Departments. 

Science Week 2022

A reminder that the Science department puts on a Big Science Show as part of Kalamunda Day, in recognition of National science Week. Students will not want to miss the demonstrations and detonations in our Science Labs, plus the challenges laid down by staff for those quick enough to register on the day.
