Robotics

Robotics workshops for any platform and any Year level.

We have standard workshop material for all of our workshops, but like to communicate with schools before workshops to understand what students already know, and what are the aims of a visit. We then can customise any workshop to best meet the schools’ needs.

Robotics workshops are an ideal way to captivate young minds and stimulate critical thinking. Robot building and programming teach a wide range of skills such as problem solving, team work and cooperation.
Students learn a simple programming language and have a robot up and moving within minutes.
Workshops can be tailored to groups from absolute novices, through to seasoned experts.

We have a fleet of LEGO robots and Early Years robots that we can bring to these incursions. You do not have to provide anything at all.
We also have extensive experience with VEX, Sphero, Tale-bot, WeDo, EV3, Dash/Dot and can tailor a workshop for you to help you with any robotics platforms you might already have.

Contact us to customise a workshop to suit your students.

    What stood out most was how thoroughly Damien customised the workshop to our school's specific needs. Rather than a one-size-fits-all session, he took the time to understand what we were after and delivered exactly that.
