As we prepare for Science Week 2026 (15\u201323 August), our Science Department is excited to once again host the Santa Sabina Science Week Showcase on 19 August, a special evening that celebrates the incredible scientific expertise within our own College community. We are looking for parents, carers and community members who work in any scientific or science\u2011related field and would be willing to share their experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our aim is to showcase the many ways science is used beyond the classroom \u2013 highlighting real\u2011world applications, diverse career pathways and the creativity and curiosity that drive scientific thinking. By hearing directly from professionals, we hope to inspire our students to pursue senior science subjects and consider future careers in STEM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This year\u2019s national theme, Seeds of Science: Nurturing Knowledge for All, invites us to reflect on how ideas grow. Just as seeds need the right conditions to flourish, scientific understanding thrives when curiosity is encouraged, questions are explored, and knowledge is shared. The theme celebrates the journey from a spark of inquiry to discoveries that benefit the wider community, reminding us that science grows best through collaboration, creativity, and care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Date<\/strong>: Wednesday 19 August Each presentation will be followed by three-five minutes of question time from the audience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To express interest in presenting, would you please complete the Google Form below? We look forward to hearing from you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
