Metro Regional Conference (ORBIT)



Calling all high school students! Join us for ORBIT (Outstanding Role-models Building Inclusive Teams) – an overnight, regional leadership conference that will be packed with leadership-based learning that will give you new skills, friendships, and the confidence to bring leadership back to your community! This 2-day (1 night) conference will bring together high school students (grades 9-12) from across Nova Scotia to grow as leaders, have fun, and come up with a project idea that will receive implementation support from the Metro Cabinet. The conference will be held at Mount Saint Vincent University in Halifax from November 15-16, 2025. With an approach rooted in the concept of servant leadership, you’ll learn about community leadership, inclusivity, project planning, communication, and advocacy. The cost is $70 per person, which covers all of your meals (served fresh in the dining hall!), overnight accommodation, and an out-of-this-world itinerary! The deadline to register is November 12th, and the payment deadline is November 14th. Click here to view a copy of the external itinerary.
