Club KAST in Nelson 2025

Club KAST in Nelson 2025

Afterschool tech club at the Nelson and District Youth Centre. 

Is your child ready to level up their tech-tinkering and skills? 

 KAST Youth has partnered with the NDYC to present Club KAST, an after-school tech program unleashing youth’s creativity in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Math)! 

 

Youth aged 6 to 12 years old get to explore a different activity each week at the NDYC Makerspace Tech Room with the guidance of a Youth Tech Facilitator.

 

Themes include 3D printing, electronics, robotics, engineering, and more!

 

This tremendously fun, hands-on program will connect youth with similar interests and teach them skills in emerging new technologies. Club KAST provides your kids a head start in succeeding in a tech-focused future!

Registration

Use the DATE SELECTION form to register youth for Club KAST sessions they wish to attend. Dates can easily be added for each participant by completing a new DATE SELECTION form. 

BOTH forms must be completed to register for Club KAST!!

 

This two form system prevents guardians from having to repeatedly enter all their youth’s information.

 

Cancellations 

If you need to cancel a Club KAST session, full refunds will be made up to 2 days prior to the event. Cancellations within 2 days prior to the event will not be refunded. If your child is sick they MUST NOT attend the NDYC. Please help keep kids healthy. 

 

If for any reason Club KAST cannot take place, registered youth will participate in regular NDYC drop-in programming under the supervision of NDYC staff.

If you have selected any of the waitlist options for Club KAST sessions your request will be saved in the order they are received. If a space becomes available for the selected dates KAST will contact you with the opportunity to register. Note that often space becomes available on the day of the session.
