Sturgeon STEAM Games 2024 - Access all the information about this event here

Since 2017, Sturgeon Public Schools has hosted the STEAM Games for students in grades 1 to 12.  The event is designed to celebrate and challenge students demonstrating interest and skill in science, technology, engineering, arts and math.  Competing in teams, students create prototypes, design solutions, and test devices for authentic challenges.  The STEAM Games encourage students to work collaboratively, think critically, and design creatively.  

Due to the impact of the Global Pandemic from 2020-2022, Sturgeon STEAM Games was put on hold. Various competitions designed to challenge students in design or in computational thinking were still held within schools during this time and schools were challenged to enter  external competitions which included:

• Skills Canada Exploration Challenge

• Hour of Code

• APEGA Science Olympics 

• Micro:bit Do Your Bit

• Rube Goldberg Lunchables

• Minecraft Global Build Challenge

• CSA - Space Brain Hack

• Let's Talk Science 2023 Competition 

• Lego First Spike Prime Competition 

Challenges will vary from year to year, but the following categories or activities have been common across the games
