Resources for Students, Parents and Teachers

Youth Science Canada (YSC) is a non-profit organization which together with the host committee organizes the Canada Wide Science Fair each year. The WRSTEF follows the policies put in place by YSC. These policies are available at youthscience.ca.

For very important information regarding the use of humans or animals, please read the policies set out by YSC and visit the Ethics and Safety page before filling out your Safety checklist. Please contact the chief judges at chair@wrstef.ca if your project involves human participants or animals.

If you are a student and don't know where to start, the Science Success Student Guide is an excellent starting point to brainstorm ideas, execute background research, maintain a logbook, and how to generate and interpret data. 

If you are a teacher and would like to organize a fair at your school, the Science Success Teacher's guide explains step by step how to guide your students and organize the activity. Of course, we are always available to help you too! Send an email to the Chair and will gladly walk you through the steps.
