The Kids World of Energy Festival offers a fun learning experience for grade five students with an important message about the need to conserve, understand, and respect energy in our homes and communities. With over 50 educational activities, speakers and performers contributing to this celebration students will gain a new perspective on energy in their lives. The four major theme areas of the festival are:

  • The Nuts and Bolts of Energy - Forms and Functions
  • Energy Conservation and You – At Home and in our City
  • Renewable Energy – Sun, Wind, Water, and Biomass Power
  • Energy Cycles and Climate Change – How Humans Use Energy

The Kids’ World of Energy Festival brings together over 4000 students from across the GTA to explore the relationship of energy to our lives and life on the planet.  The festival offers children the unique opportunity to discover the science and manifestations of energy in an urban environment.

My students learned a great deal from the festival and they are making changes in their personal lives. – Teacher participant, 2008

2010 Festival Fees: $5 per student
