Take part in one of these fun virtual Scientists in School workshops this summer! Explore STEAM concepts (science, technology, engineering, arts, math) at home, including surface tension, chemistry, pollination, seeds, colour, motion, light, solubility, absorption, and so much more!
Please limit your registration to one workshop per family, to ensure as many people as possible may enjoy these programs! Registration opens two weeks before each workshop.
