SRHacks 2021 is the first ever youth coding and engineering hackathon held by Science Rendezvous. Students in grades 6-8 within the Greater Toronto Regions (i.e. Toronto, York, Halton, Peel, Durham) will have 3 weeks to tackle real-world problems by creating original designs/innovations which will be presented to professional judges in the industry. If chosen as winners, you will receive awards and/or cash prizes and have the chance to meet virtually with our esteemed scientist, engineer, and entrepreneur mentors! Everyone is welcome to participate, free of charge!
.
Are you interested but don’t know how to code or be an engineer?
.
Science Rendezvous will be running interactive workshops and speaker sessions during the competition period to help students develop new skills & learn more about S.T.E.A.M (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math disciplines).

Are you considering entering engineering in the future? Are you entering engineering this fall? This is your chance to talk directly to engineering students, professors, and industry professionals! Our Explore Engineering event is happening on Saturday June 19th at 1 pm ET. In this FREE virtual session, you can ask questions, get tips, and hear about university and career experiences.

In this program, children and youth ages 9-11 are invited to spend as much time out of their seats moving as they do absorbed in hands-on projects exploring the world of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.

For Gr. 1 - 5 youth interested in STEM and curious about space exploration. We introduce basic topics in engaging ways over 8 sessions through engaging activities. An activity kit will be shipped to the student (applicable for residents in Ontario only). $25+tax/session.

Join Let's Talk Science Outreach to read Joseph Anthony's book, "The Dandelion Seed," and complete a hands-on science activity about seeds and seed dispersal!

In this activity, students will examine seeds and make predictions on how they disperse. They will then make a simple seed carrier that flies like a maple key using everyday household items.

Join Let's Talk Science Outreach to read H.A. Rey's book, "Curious George Discovers The Stars" and complete a hands-on science activity about constellations!

In this activity, students will learn about stars and constellations and create their own constellation viewer using everyday household items.

Join Let's Talk Science Outreach to read J. Jean Robertson's book, "Charlie's Harmonica" and complete a hands-on science activity about sound!

Are you a high school student passionate about the environment? Are you thinking about pursuing a career in the environmental field and want to learn from top scientists and researchers what is the role today’s young leaders will play in the world of tomorrow?

Climate change is now affecting every individual in every country on every continent, costing the planet dearly today and even more tomorrow. As a global emergency that threatens to reverse decades of health and development gains, climate change has the potential to cause widespread human suffering, deepen global inequities, and put at risk the environmental and economic systems we depend on for our survival.

Find out about post-secondary pathways that can help you attain your goals, learn more about the science behind climate change and how can you take action!

High school students passionate about health sciences are invited to learn from top scientists and researchers at this symposium. Learn what role you can play in the world of tomorrow, discover post-secondary pathways and explore what the future of health sciences looks like!

If you are a high school student who's passionate about engineering or looking to pursue a career in engineering, this symposium is for you!
