STEM education at Mentone Primary School inspires curiosity, creativity, and problem-solving through an engaging and hands-on approach to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. Students develop critical thinking, collaboration, and digital literacy skills in a supportive and stimulating learning environment.

With a strong focus on Science, Technology, and Engineering throughout the year, students benefit from a well-rounded curriculum that blends direct instruction with interactive exploration. This balanced approach ensures they build both foundational knowledge and practical skills while developing a passion for discovery.

In Science, students cultivate skills in observation, experimentation, and scientific reasoning. They explore the natural world, conduct hands-on investigations, and engage in inquiry-based learning that nurtures their curiosity and understanding.

Technology education equips students with essential digital skills, including coding, robotics, and responsible online behaviour. Through interactive projects, they gain confidence in using technology to solve problems and bring creative ideas to life.

Engineering challenges students to think critically and develop innovative solutions to real-world problems. By applying design thinking and working collaboratively, they create, test, and refine their ideas using the engineering design process.

STEM learning at Mentone Primary School is guided by the school's Learner Powers, encouraging students to be self-motivated, resilient, and reflective learners. By fostering a growth mindset and a love for exploration, our STEM program empowers students to become confident, capable, and future-ready problem solvers.
