Welcome to the Science Department

Newington College has nine laboratories, each catering for Science from Year 7 to Year 12. All Science lessons are conducted in laboratories or computer-equipped resource rooms, allowing for considerable flexibility in teaching programs, classroom practice and student learning.

Practical work in all courses is complemented by the ample provision of both commonplace and specialised Science equipment.

Where possible, relevant technologies, including computers, are used to support teaching programmes and practical work. Computers are increasingly used by students for data acquisition and analysis, for access to information sources, for access to CDROM learning packages and for computer-based presentations.

The Head of Science at Newington is Craig Seawright
