Build. Code. Experiment.
Robo Bricks introduces primary school students to the world of robotics in a hands-on, playful, and structured way. Using LEGO® motors, sensors, and the WeDo 2.0 app, children build real-world robot models—and bring them to life through code.
This program gives students an end-to-end robotics experience that blends creativity, logic, and collaboration.
Children will:
- Build and code LEGO® robots that mimic real-world machines
- Learn to program with visual coding tools and basic algorithms
- Use sensors like tilt and motion to create interactive models
- Develop critical thinking and creative problem-solving skills
- Gain foundational knowledge of software engineering concepts
Our Learning Framework
All sessions follows the Learn-Prototype-Code-Experiment-Imagine format.
Learn
We introduce the engineering and programming concepts behind each session.
Prototype
Students build a robot that performs a specific real-world task.
Code
Children use visual programming to make their robot move, react, and respond.
Experiment & Imagine
They modify inputs and code, exploring how changes affect behaviour. Children test, play, and push their models further—making science and robotics feel exciting and achievable.
Program Outcomes
Robo Bricks is designed to develop:
- Algorithmic thinking and procedural logic
- Understanding of flow charts and pseudo-code
- Effective teamwork and communication
- Confidence with digital tools and software interfaces
- Information systems and media literacy
What Students Explore
- Software Engineering: Loops, logic, planning methods, dynamic coding, efficiency
- Mechanical Engineering: Forces, applied maths, and real-world machine systems
- Robotic Challenges: Candy factory, monkey bot, soccer robot, vacuum bot, beyblade launcher, and more

Our programs speak for themselves, but our parents say it best. From increased focus to visible excitement, hear how Young Engineers is changing the way children engage with learning.
My boys can tell when someone has real passion for what they are doing and sharing. The boys response was Mr Wong and Jack really like kids. Loved it.

Elliot has continued to talk about how fun Engineering Camp was. A wonderful camp and he will be attending again in the future.

Fantastic experience for young minds. Nate had an absolute blast and cannot wait to do it again next year. He is still talking about it nearly 2 weeks later. Thank you.

My 2 kids had a blast. 3 Lego builds in a day, they couldn’t get enough. My 10 year old enjoyed ‘modifying’ the build outside of the scripted instructions. Great way to encourage innovation. Keep that bit up!!

(Parent from Perth camp)
Our children had a great time and were able to explain the tasks and their projects to us very confidently when we arrived to pick them up. While we obviously didn’t see the whole day and progression of instruction by staff, it appeared there were elements of problem- based learning as well as foundational instruction and we liked this very much. We also liked the small, intimate nature of the group.
