The Robotics Academy inspires a passion for learning through science, technology and robotics by training innovative and outstanding young people, through critical thinking and inquiry, strengthening collaborative work.
During the academic year students develop the design, construction, programming, and manipulation of robotic prototypes through annual challenges and competitions whilst working in a collaborative environment.
Our Robotics teacher, certified by Carnegie Mellon University, inspires students through the use of the VEX Robotics design system and great emphasis on STEM principles.
The purpose of the Academy is to help foster a generation by giving them the best tools (collaborative work, community input, programming, digital design, construction and manipulation), taking their skills, passions and possibilities to the extreme, for high performance in local, regional, national and international participations that the VEX platform organizes each year with specific challenges.
