SHSM Students Participate in Innovation, Creativity, and Entrepreneurship Day

Grade 11 and 12 students enrolled in the Arts and Culture Specialized High Skils Major (SHSM) and Business SHSM at All Saints Catholic Secondary School participated in a highly engaging Innovation, Creativity, and Entrepreneurship (ICE) Day at Playdium in Whitby! The day was facilitated by Joel Hilchey at Beanstalk Creative and supported by the General Manager and Assistant General Manager at Playdium. Using their skills and training in the arts and business, students took on a project with real-world implications for Playdium and pitched their own creative solutions in an attempt to help Playdium grow their business and better serve our community. It was a fun, informative, and engaging day - students left with a newfound understanding of how their learning in both the arts and business can help solve real world problems for local businesses.
