Saturday Science Clubs

Saturday Science Clubs features hands on science and engineering projects and activities for youth in grades 1 to 9 on Saturdays. These 3 hour club meetings are split into classes by grade so that all children will be challenged and have fun with campers at the same grade as themselves.

Everyone gathers at the main entrance (lobby) of the Engineering building for check-in at 9:30 am. There will be sign-in tables where the campers will meet.  From there the SCI-FI instructors will lead their groups to their classrooms.  The instructors will lead everyone back to the main entrance for check-out at 12:00 pm.  

The Saturday Science Clubs program will include tours on campus, science activities and engineering projects. We try to change the take-home projects year after year in such a way to minimize the chance of a student building the same project two years in a row.

For Students in grades 1 to 6: Each week features a different theme in science and engineering. The curriculum is also completely different in each term. Topics included biology, logic, space, health science, chemistry, technology, rocks and fossils, physics, computer science, environmental science and more.

Exploring Engineering (Grade 7-9): Explore different disciplines of engineering through hands on projects and tours. If you love to build, create and solve problems this is a great place to start. Come learn from current engineering students in a community focused environment for students in grades 7-9.

Offered Clubs

Grade 1-2: Curiosity
Grade 3-4: Discovery
Grade 5-6: Enterprise
