The Big Science Competition is being held this year on 15th May for Year 8 pupils only. This is run in a similar format to the ICAS tests. Pupils complete the competition online, so will need a device.
Students who sit the Big Science Competition are assessed against the outcomes for the Australian Curriculum – Science, (very similar to New Zealand). The competition is designed not only to test their science knowledge, but their critical thinking and problem-solving skills too!
The cost of sitting this exam is $12.
Pupils gaining a distinction or higher will receive a Science badge.
Completion of the Google form and payment are to be made to the school bank account by Wednesday 3rd May.
