We Visit You

Our visits usually run between 60-90 minutes and we typically present to 20-30 students at a time. We can do multiple visits to classes in your school in a day, and we can also try our best to tailor our demonstrations and experiments to fit with your curriculum.

Please contact us to arrange a virtual Scihigh presentation for your students.

It’s Free!

Our program is completely free of charge to schools and community groups, within Toronto. All you need to provide for us are the bright, eager young minds of your students.

Internships

Each year we offer internships for grade 11 and 12 students. These highly competitive internships are offered both at March break and in the summer. Applications for the March break internships will be available on this site starting in November and summer internship applications will be available in March.

Please contact lorien@lunenfeld.ca for information on 2024 summer internships.

Details about our internships are available here.

The SciHigh program has been visiting classrooms throughout Toronto since 1997 to promote and excite students about science. Hands-on demonstrations we are currently presenting include:

  • Gel electrophoresis
  • Extracting DNA from bananas (Grade 1-8)
  • Oral DNA extraction (Grade 9-12)
  • Animal models
