The event brought together students, teachers, community members and mentors from across Bruce and Grey Counties to showcase the innovative and creative projects of students that highlighted the importance of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) education.

Secondary Cooperative Education Students from Sacred Heart High School (SHHS) and St. Mary’s High School with their mentors led Grade 5 and 6 students from across the district in opportunities to explore a wide range of exciting exhibits and hands-on learning activities.

Students were able to engage with experts in various fields including the Honourable Minister of Agriculture Food and Rural Affairs Lisa Thompson, MPP for Huron-Bruce, who was one of the mentors.
