STEM/TECHNOLOGY
STEM education includes the following learning areas according to the Victorian Curriculum Science, Design and Technologies (including the Engineering
principles and systems), Digital Technologies and Mathematics. STEM lessons are taught weekly at St Roch’s. The program links closely to the two year curriculum plan through real-world contexts and develops key skills needed to contribute in a connected world including problem solving, creativity, critical thinking, teamwork, initiative, communication and digital literacy. Incorporated into STEM learning is a Robotics program where students use the design process and apply their knowledge and skills in coding to complete challenge tasks. A team is formed to participate in the annual
FIRST Lego League competition.
