At Dillbadin Primary School, we are passionate about preparing students for the future—and that’s why STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) is a key part of our learning program.

All students participate in a one-hour STEM session each week, where they are encouraged to think creatively, work collaboratively, and solve real-world problems using hands-on materials and digital tools. STEM learning is engaging, dynamic, and fun—because it connects directly to the world around us.

In STEM, students:

• Investigate scientific concepts through experiments and inquiry

• Explore technology and digital systems

• Design and build using engineering processes

• Apply mathematical thinking in meaningful ways

STEM promotes important 21st-century skills like critical thinking, innovation, curiosity, and resilience. It also helps students see the connections between different areas of learning and how they can be applied in everyday life.

By exploring and experimenting in a supportive environment, students at Dillbadin learn to ask questions, test ideas, and take risks—skills that are not only vital for future careers, but for lifelong learning.
