How do you date dinosaurs? Which of our clothes are made from shellfish remains? Will robots ever have a sense of self? Why do deep-sea creatures tend to be red? Why do space shuttles accelerate to reduce speed? Why do anacondas have kneecaps?
Since human life began, people have yearned to learn more about the wonders of the natural world - which is exactly what science is all about. Today's exciting developments in science and technology permeate every aspect of our lives, and this is the context in which science at MLC is experienced.
Our practical and relevant learning program has been designed to ensure that students are energised and enthused to learn more about their environment and the processes that occur within it. Issues associated with developments in science and technology are actively discussed. The sharing and expression of student views is a healthy way of improving understanding and dispelling myths and misinformation.
The biological, chemical, physical and psychological concepts encountered in science provide endless scope and fascination for our students.
