Pelican Falls First Nations High Schools' first annual Science and Technology Camp took place on November 18 and 19, 2004 at the school site.
	The camp's goals included educating the students about First Nation contributions to science and technologies, raising the profile of science and technology as a career choice and allowing the students to meet and discuss the recent and past innovations in science and technology made by aboriginal people. It is the hope of the staff that this science and technology camp and the curriculum will provide the students with the unique experience to see science and technology in a new light.

Videos from the different sessions include:

• Introduction to the Science and Technology Camp - High, Low 
• Ida Kenny - Traditional Medicines - High , Low
