Virtual Initiatives
Growing Together From Far Apart
We aim to create educational experiences for students even when we aren't having fun at the annual Sparkin' STEM conference together! With this as our driving force, we are happy to announce our various virtual initiatives to bring the community together. Our brand new virtual initiatives during the pandemic all focus on different aspects of STEM!
Project Blast - Off
Project Blast-Off, one of Sparkin' STEM's first initiatives of 2021, is a two-day, aerospace-centered event for students in Grades 5-8 where attendees can explore habitable planets, compete and win prizes! Groups with the most comprehensive planets will win exclusive prizes!

We are excited to declare our partnership with Conseil Scolaire Viamonde. Sparkin’s STEM presents Franco- STIM, Franco- STIM offers technical, virtual and leadership workshops exclusively for students in Conseil Scolaire Viamonde.
Franco-STIM is an eight-week long program that allows participants to learn more about STEM through hands-on activities. Franco-STIM is an extension of the STEM curriculum in grades 6-8 allowing participants to enhance the knowledge of concepts learned in class. Participants will conduct science experiments, explore 3D design, engage in fun kahoots to test their knowledge and so much more!
