Why Science?
Science is an important subject in the STREAM (science, technology, reading, engineering and mathematics) multidisciplinary approach to learning.
Studies have shown the importance of encouraging students to think and ask questions, without the rush to get the ‘right answers’. Thinking Cap Science inspires and ignites every child’s world of imagination to help them achieve their highest potential to be innovative thinkers, future inventors and creative problem solvers.
