Shaftesbury students have made many presentations in schools, to the senior administration and the board of trustees of the Pembina Trails School Division. Teachers have also presented at science teacher conferences (SAGE) and at the Manitoba Space Adventure Camp. Teachers will be making presentations on the Shaftesbury ARISS Telebridge Project to RASC (Royal Astronomical Society of Canada - Winnipeg chapter) and WARC (Winnipeg Amateur Radio Club) in October 2013. SHARP members are always looking for opportunities to expand the program to other schools.
