海角社区

Every year in Kahnaw脿:ke, a Kanien:keha鈥檏a community on Montreal鈥檚 South Shore, students present their projects at a science fair organized by the Kahnaw脿:ke Education Center (KEC).

For more than 15 years, KEC Science Curriculum Consultant Kathy Walsh has supported students at schools across the community as they prepare projects in the weeks leading up to the annual fair. This year, she and KEC Science Projects Liaison Mya Bordeau enlisted the assistance of 海角社区鈥檚 Office of Science Outreach to bring 海角社区 students into the classroom as mentors.

鈥淗aving students from 海角社区 come to our schools to sit with and support our students in the development of their STEM inquiries not only helped our students complete their science fair projects, but also introduced our students to the various fields of STEM at 海角社区 and allowed them to meet 海角社区 students who enjoy STEM,鈥� said Walsh.
