Grades 5-6 (max. 10 students)

Robotics is where the screen meets the machine! It is a fantastic combination of coding and engineering and a great next step along the digital pathway of learning. Children learn how to instruct the robots to do exactly what they want!

Children who learn robotics typically develop greater skills to:

• understand the importance of clear instructions to achieve results
• use their lateral, logical and computational skills
• develop their problem solving skills ​

​A Fun and Engaging Way
​to Learn

Our robotics program is structured and as it progresses, the children’s learning is scaffolded to ensure they build on their previous knowledge.  All of the lessons follow our framework of:

• Why? (context),
• What? (theory),
• How? (guided practice) and
• What if…? (independent tasks).

Children creatively explore coding solutions using mBots, Scratch, Lego and Microbits, among other tools. They explore basic unplugged and screen based coding, progressing to advanced Lego Mindstorms and Microbits.

Hands On!

This is a true hands-on experience, so the program gives plenty of time to design programs and test it out on real robots.

Lead by example

All of our robotics coaches are passionate about this technology and how robotics is shaping our world and future.  They are perfect role models to teach children the foundations for designing and testing their robotic creations.
