About this event
This program is for ages 6-12 years
Learn about force, actions, and reactions with Scientists in Schools. Registered participants can pick up free kits at any RHPL branch one week before the program begins.
You can now choose which branch you wish to pick up your kit at but you must register 1 week before the program. If you register after that, your default pick up location will be Central Library.
The kits will be available for pick up 1 week before the program. You will receive an email when it is ready for pick up.
Priority will be given to valid RHPL card holders.
This program is hosted on Zoom.
Scientists in Schools is a Non-Profit Canadian organization passionate about science education through fun, interactive workshops.
How to access the program:

Using video:
The Library is committed to your safety in both physical and digital spaces. One way of ensuring this is by maintaining visibility. For this reason, we require all customers participating in our interactive, virtual children's and teen programs to keep their videos on the entire time during the program.
In this program, we also ask that parents appear on screen with their child/teen upon entering the virtual room, and remain on screen until the program lead has confirmed their registration. Afterwards, the child/teen may remain on screen alone.
During this Program, you will be using a third-party platform, Zoom, for the purpose of communication.
