Primary Connections

Primary Connections is an innovative and exciting new initiative linking the teaching of science with the teaching of literacy in Australian primary schools.
Primary Connections provides a comprehensive approach to the development of scientific literacy and consists of a rich curriculum resource integrated with a professional learning program.
