COMPETITIVE ROBOTICS PROGRAM
Our competitive Robotics Program offers an exciting and dynamic environment for students with a keen interest in robotics. Using the LEGO Spike system, teams engage in challenging projects and competitions that blend creativity, technology, and teamwork. This is an annual program designed for those eager to dive deep into robotics and make their mark.
Kids will learn to code and build robots, developing valuable technical skills that are highly valued and can pave the way for future academic and career success.
Students will work in groups to design, build, and program robots. They’ll learn to communicate effectively and leverage each other’s strengths, learning the importance of sharing responsibilities and develop leadership skills.
Our club provides a supportive atmosphere where kids are grouped by age and experience, allowing them to make new friends. The mix of creativity, technology, and fun ensures that learning is always enjoyable.
Students will participate in the FIRST LEGO LEAGUE robotics competition at the end of the year to showcase their skills, boosting confidence and providing opportunities for recognition and awards.
Monthly fees include the cost of participating in the FIRST LEGO League Robotics Competition as well as all LEGO Spike kits, tools, and laptops/computers necessary to learn to build, program, and compete.
When you register on our booking site, your child is automatically enrolled from September to June, and families will be automatically billed on the first of each month. Holidays are listed below.
Classes are twice a week and students work towards competing at the FIRST LEGO League (FLL) Robotics Competition during the program.
