  • Contest Information Sessions

    Quarterly sessions about the Canadian Innovation Contests (CIC) and global olympiads like TIMO, HKIMO, and MOEMS. Learn about contest formats, scoring, preparation strategies, and how CKSTEM students consistently outperform national averages.

  • Annual Award Ceremony

    A celebration held in the GTA each spring for contest medal winners and their families. Students receive recognition for their achievements in math, science, computing, visual arts, creative writing, and public speaking.

  • Guest Speaker Sessions

    Industry professionals and academics share STEM career insights with students and parents. Past speakers have covered topics from AI and data science to engineering design and competitive mathematics at the university level.
