Testimonials

“Our daughter thoroughly enjoyed every day and every activity at the SciQuest Camp. She was excited to go each morning and came home with crafts and projects that they made and stories of her day. She said all the camp instructors were really nice, and on day 2 she asked if she could go again next year! We’re very happy that the Faculty of Science is doing such an important outreach project for kids”
– Dr. Rodney Russell, Interim Associate Vice-President (Research and Innovation)
