Welcome to Year 10 Science

Kia Ora Young Scientists,

Welcome to Year 10 Science. My name is Mrs. Lindsay and I will be taking you through your Science journey this year. We will be exploring various areas of Science, including Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Earth Science. Whilst content knowledge is important in Science, its the Science Skills that permeates through all areas of Science, which will be assess in your Common Assessment Tasks (CATs) delivered under exam conditions this year. In addition to the CATs, you will have an opportunity to start your NCEA Level 1 this year.

 Should you need to contact me, face to face is always easiest while in class. Alternatively you can send me an email at alindsay@mhjc.school.nz, but do note that my reply may be brief.

I look forward to co-creating our Science journey together with you all.

Mrs Lindsay
