STEM Workshops and Programs

Our virtual workshops* are available across Canada and open the wonders of science and engineering to everyone, foster environmental stewardship, and encourage children to discover how science is used in their everyday world. They provide rich, engaging and investigative experiences with plentiful opportunities for youth to interact with the ‘visiting’ scientist guiding the workshop.

Due to COVID-19, we are only offering virtual workshops right now, but look forward to the day when we can be back in-person with you and your young scientists.

*All virtual workshops include mini science bags individually-packaged for each participant and sent ahead of the session date.

Impact Story : Nicholas, Engineering Science student at the University of Toronto

“In all of these investigations, I felt a sense of wonder instilled in me by the program. I was always excited going into Scientists in School, as I knew I would learn so much more about what I had observed on my own in the outside world. From analyzing the construction of insects to the physics of simple machines, my curiosity was always reinforced by the omnipresent sense of wonder I felt while completing that day’s experiments and activities.”
