Science
The Science program at St. Anselm’s is designed to develop an understanding and appreciation for natural phenomena.
Department Overview
Our classes are built upon inquiry based activities, laboratory investigations, mathematical analysis and textbook readings. Technology is woven through all aspects of the science curriculum. Each student in Forms A – Form VI has science class every day, which includes a double period lab session once per week.
