Ozobots: Escape the Maze Put problem-solving skills to the test with Ozobots—tiny robots that follow lines and respond to colour commands! Participants will be put in teams to get their bots out of a maze. Participants guide the robot by adding simple colour codes to the maze. These codes tell the robot when to turn, stop, speed up, or slow down. Through testing, adjusting, and trying again, children learn how small changes can make a big difference. If time allows, a robot race ensues using the colour code each team has come up with!

At a Death Café, people — often strangers — gather to share food, tea, and honest discussion about death, loss, mortality, and the meaning of life. It’s not a grief support group or counseling session, but a safe, welcoming space to talk openly, listen deeply, and explore what it means to live fully — without stigma or taboo.
