鶹AV Reporter: Science fair fun in Kahnawà:ke

Published: 17 May 2024

Every year in Kahnawà:ke, a Kanien:keha’ka community on Montreal’s South Shore, students present their projects at a science fair organized by the Kahnawà: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 鶹AV’s Office of Science Outreach to bring 鶹AV students into the classroom as mentors.

“Having students from 鶹AV 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 鶹AV and allowed them to meet 鶹AV students who enjoy STEM,” said Walsh.
