STEM & Entrepreneurship Competition:
Youth Helping Youth
In our fall program students will engage in a STEM and Entrepreneurship focused competition! In teams, students will identify a health related issue affecting young people in today's society and develop ways to address this issue. During the competition students will learn valuable skills, engage with the community and have access to a network of professionals to guide them!
Public Service Speaker:
Minister of International Trade
In May, our students completed their CYC pillar on public service! They had the amazing opportunity to discuss with the Honorable Mary Ng, the Minister for International Trade and Small Business & Export Promotion. Topics included the importance of having diverse voices at the decision table and how diversity and inclusion leads to new perspectives and innovation. One piece of advice we learned from the minister is to get involved and to ask questions. You will be surprised at the number of opportunities that are out there! We look forward to having more insightful and inspiring leaders to spark more conversations in the future!
