Rain or shine we are here for your children
Our trained teachers go the extra mile to help your child learn
All our teachers have QTS, Qualified Teacher Status
The Science Intervention Centre provides young scientists from Year 7 to Year 11 with classroom workshops that are curriculum-aligned and focused. Our presenters bring subject expertise, discovery-based learning methodologies, and specialised materials and equipment making every workshop hands-on.
Sparking a long-lasting interest in STEM and the environment, inspiring children to think differently about a future STEM career path and challenging them to succeed are just a few of the things we accomplish in every workshop. We want children to believe they can achieve things they never thought were possible.
Natural human curiosity and necessity lead to asking questions (What is the problem?), constructing a hypothesis (How do I solve it?), testing it with evidence and evaluating the result (Did the solution work?), and making future decisions based on that result.
This is problem-solving: using critical thinking and evidence to create solutions and make decisions. Problem-solving and critical thinking are two of the most important skills students learn in school. They are essential to making good decisions that lead to achievement and success during and after school.
By 2024 we need to be training 186,000 engineers every year to keep up with demand. And the bottom line is that we are not doing nearly enough to make a mark on those figures. But, given the chance, we know that school students relish the opportunity to roll their sleeves up and get involved in “real science”.
Being a scientist is about asking questions, being curious, exploring, and experimenting – all things that children are naturally good at. Working together we can inspire young people in a way that will help them be successful, productive, and engaged in their communities.
By becoming involved with The Science Intervention Centre, you are choosing to invest your time, expertise or money in something bigger than our organisation; you are giving children the chance to develop skills, explore science and get excited about learning.
