National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day are opportunities to reflect on the lasting and intergenerational impacts of the Residential School system, and to deepen our understanding of its history and legacy.

We encourage our community to continue listening, learning and engaging with Indigenous voices, stories and experiences as part of the ongoing journey toward truth, healing and reconciliation.

It’s more than one summer.

At Shad, participants explore STEAM and entrepreneurship, turn ideas into action, take on real-world challenges, and build skills in leadership, collaboration, communication and problem-solving.

Along the way, they discover new interests, explore post-secondary possibilities and gain new perspectives on what their future could look like. And the connections they make become part of a community that continues long after the program ends.

That’s the Shad Advantage: a summer of exploration, growth and possibility that can shape what comes next.

Shad is about more than what happens during one summer.

It is a chance to explore new interests, learn alongside students from across Canada, take on unfamiliar challenges and discover new ways of thinking.

Those experiences can help students build confidence, independence and greater clarity about what may come next.

One summer can give you room to try something different.

Explore new interests. Meet people who think differently. Build something. Ask better questions. Learn more about what excites you and where you might want to go next.

Sometimes, a summer can change what feels possible.

Some of the best experiences start with saying yes to something new.

A new environment. A challenge you’ve never tried before. People who push your thinking. The chance to become a little more independent along the way.

Sometimes, one yes can lead somewhere unexpected.
