General registration for our summer programs open in February, and additional sessions may be added as we complete hiring processes or as waitlists for our programs grow. We recommend checking our website and Active registration software regularly to see what programs and spots are available. As we are an educational program, we recommend students register for summer programs based on the grade they will be entering in September (for example, a student completing grade 4 registers for a grade 5/6 camp). Exceptions to move between levels are permitted, based on student confidence and love of the subject, and provided the student feels comfortable being the oldest/youngest in the camp. Exceptions can be approved by contacting the office.

Science Engagement sessions engage with the outcomes of the provincial curriculum, extending them in a range of meaningful ways, through hands-on, cooperative learning. Students also work within a professional setting, and learn from student leaders that themselves are working in those fields throughout the year. The facilities, as you’d expect, are exceptional—a majority of the sessions take place within Faculty of Science at the Keele Campus of York University—as is the organization of the programs and sessions.

Dear Friends,
We are thrilled that you are considering Science Engagement Programs for your child! We have had an exciting journey as we pivoted to meet the needs of our little Science Engagement community. We have introduced our online STEM programs, in the form of week-long camps, weekly STEM Clubs, and now online March Break workshops to amazing reviews:
We couldn't say it better ourselves!
We are working with the University to return to a full in-person program on the York University Keele Campus once again during Summer 2023, in addition to our online STEM Camp programs. More information about our Summer 2023 camp offerings will be posted at the end of February. Thank you for your patience and consideration, and we hope to see you soon!
Sincerely,
Cora and Kimberly
Managers, Science Engagement Programs
Our staff undergo a rigorous selection process to evaluate their suitability to be an Instructor, looking for students with a high academic caliber and a fun, engaging demeanor. All of our staff are screened with a police background check, and our teaching staff are trained in First Aid and CPR-C. We maintain a minimum staff-to-student ratio of 10:1, but with our volunteer team of Counselors, our ratio is often much lower. We have students who love our programs so much they come back to volunteer, and then work for us while they are in university. It is always a pleasure to see how our students grow within the Science Engagement community.
