Create Robot Structures with Straws
Take the first step into the world of engineering as you join colourful reusable straws of varying lengths to create basic 3D shapes like a tetrahedron, cube, and more!
Use these shapes to create the backbone of your robot structures!
Introducing Quirkbot!
Now here’s where all the magic happens! A Quirkbot is a mini-computer that’s small in size but HUGE in versatility!
Program your Quirkbots using block-based programming software, and get your robo-creations moving with servo motors. Then, race with other robots to see who’s the fastest!
Discover how code and mechanisms synergise in robotics, and learn how hardware and code interface with one another.
Experiment with new mechanisms and designs! Let your imagination & creativity run wild – this workshop is just the start of exploring the possibilities of tech!
No lectures. No memorisation. No ONE right answer. Like real life, we're all about trying things out yourself, failing, figuring what went wrong & trying again. These are the skills & mindset that will last a lifetime and how we learn in real life. Let's get kids to learn how to learn. Because the kids who learn to learn become curious, inventive, resourceful human beings who solve real world problems to make a meaningful impact.
