This course begins by introducing students to the use of equipment and safety in a science laboratory. It then delves into topics from four key strands in Science: The Living World, which explores living organisms and their interactions with each other and the environment; The Material World, focusing on the study of matter and its transformations; The Physical World, explaining various physical phenomena such as light, sound, heat, electricity, magnetism, waves, forces, and motion, all unified by the concept of energy transformation; and Planet Earth and Beyond, which examines the interconnecting systems and processes of Earth, the solar system, and the universe.

Students will cover a total of 6 topics, plus participate in a Science Project, equipping them with the foundational skills needed to understand the workings of the world around them.
