A collaboration between the Limestone District School Board, Pathways to Education, and the Technological Education Multi-Sesison program was featured on Global News Kingston.
The project, called Tricolour Tech, gives students gearing up for high school the opportunity to try out a skilled trade.
There’s a growing need for workers in many skilled trades across Canada. While governments are working to address the problem through immigration, retraining programs, and by reducing barriers to completing apprenticeships, high schools are also doing their part by highlighting the diversity of potential career options to youth before they begin post-secondary studies.
Thank you to the wonderful members of our faculty community who created these resources.
Sistema Kingston began a pilot project with the National Youth Orchestra of Canada where ten students had the opportunity to receive mentorship from older youth musicians.
Queen’s University is partnering with the Limestone District School Board to bring hands-on technological education to local students as they prepare to enter high school in September. Students will engage in active learning with university-level instructors and teacher candidates at the Technological Education Learning Lab located in the Queen’s Faculty of Education.
Camp Outlook is a volunteer organization run mostly by students and alumni of Queen's. It takes youth on multi-day canoe expeditions.

Faculty and graduate researchers, alumni, and educators in the community are invited to submit 90-minute workshop proposals. We are defining literacy broadly and hope to have workshops that encompass early years, exceptionalities, multiliteracies, literacy and I-EDIAA, evaluation and assessment of literacies, etc.
We hope to cover four broad categories: I-EDIAA; Languages, Literacies and Early Years; Professional Practice; and Evaluation and Knowledge Translation.
