ONGOING EVENTS
Looking for new
things to do with your child? Do you think your child would enjoy participating
in science? If your child is between the ages of 3-7, they are eligible to
sign-up for an online study with researchers at the University of Waterloo.
Participation is free and the studies are quite fun for children! Children get
a certificate at the end and a chance to win a $50 Amazon gift card. A typical
session involves a 25-minute Zoom video call with their researchers. If you
would like to sign-up, please visit https://www.uwcoral.ca/sign-up

Second-year students from Conestoga College’s Bachelor of Public
Relations program are the hosts behind Magic Matters, a virtual magic show with
100% of ticket sales and donations going towards the amazing acts of local
charity, Food4Kids Waterloo Region. Food4Kids Waterloo Region works alongside
daily nutrition programs in elementary schools to identify gaps in children’s
access to food and makes sure that no child in our community goes hungry during
the 84 days of school breaks and the 40 weekends of the school year. Food4Kids
Waterloo Region helps over 700 children in our region each year. With our
support, we hope to meet the needs of the over 2,500 children in the Waterloo
Region who experience hunger.
This one-hour, interactive and entertaining show is on April
10th, 6-7 pm, right in the comfort of your home! Tailored toward children, the
show welcomes the entire family!

magic from our magician Scott Dietrich. Scott is voted Toronto and the GTA’s
