WHAT IS THE TELUS World of Science™ HOME SCHOOL PROGRAM?

The TELUS World of Science Home School Program was created to allow Home School students the chance to experience the same programming that regular Alberta schools do.
Enhance your Home School Program by taking part in a curriculum related Interpretive Program, one of our exciting Science Demonstrations, immerse yourselves in an IMAX® film or explore our Galleries. The choice is up to you!

WHO CAN TAKE PART IN THE HOME SCHOOL PROGRAM?

Students who are currently being home schooled are welcome to take part on any of our Home School dates.

WHAT CAN I DO ON A HOME SCHOOL DAY AT TELUS World of Science?

(Schedules are subject to change without notice.)
