SPEC

Saba Saadat worked with the TeamUP Science student group in 2017/2018 as the Director of SPEC Sponsorship. She was a very kind, generous and dedicated individual who always brought a positive attitude to our group. She worked hard during her time with TeamUP, going above and beyond her role, to provide educational opportunities to marginalized youth in Edmonton. We are very sad to hear about her passing, as well as the other 175 victims aboard the UIA Flight PS752. We send our deepest condolences to Saba’s family, friends and anyone else who had the pleasure of knowing her. Thank you Saba, for all the efforts that you put into making the world a better place.

For a second year for our Engineering and Technology Camp we tested the students creativity and collaboration to make a boat out of cardboard and race it in water!! Thank you to U of A Aquatic Centre for their generosity in allowing us to use their pool for free to do our boat races and for the students to have fun in!

These are just some of the SPECtacular things we got to do and visit this year for our Chemical and Physical Sciences themed camp!

One of the cool things we got to do this Chem and Phys camp was have a talk from Dr. Marie-Cecile Piro and Dr. Frank Hegmann about their research and visited the SPECtacular Labs!!! Thanks to University of Alberta Physics Page

This is just a recap of some of the fun stuff we got to do and SPECtacular places we got to visit!!
