Science education for young people

Scientell develops and implements education activities such as writing and designing textbooks, creating classroom resources, contributing products towards National Science Week, conducting international science shows and writing educational and fun science books for young people.

At Scientell we’re passionate about contributing towards a love of science in the younger generations. We love to see children embrace and delight in science, and hopefully pursue a career in STEM.

Innovatively written and designed to appeal to a wide spectrum of students, the three Amazing Science books cover the complete Australian science curriculum for each of Years 7, 8 and 9.
