They’ve nominated them for the Alberta School Board Association’s annual Friends of Education Award.
They’ve been working together since 2021 to provide great experiences for students.
“The hands-on approach of TELUS World of Science – Edmonton has their team in our schools doing age-appropriate content with all our students,” says Superintendent Betty Turpin. “Between the fun demonstrations and lessons on things like coding for the children, there are also resources for teachers as well. This is a great partnership and our division is honoured to put this nomination forward.
The organization has been able to bring their programming to our area through their mobile units.
