Robotics
The advanced Robotics program is for students who want to immerse themselves in advanced engineering and coding principles, normally taught at university level of study. Students use LEGO®EV3, multiple different sensors and more sophisticated motors to build their robots. Children will:
- Learn advanced coding and software skills
- Simulate real-life machines that perform range of tasks
- Learn to code a range of parameters in their machine
- Follow complex flow charts
- Longer sessions for greater skill building
- Use range of sensors like gyro, touch, colour & motion
- Use 2 different types of motors
- Build models having multiple moving parts and complex order for part movement
- Further develop critical thinking and creative problem solving skills
Our Learning Framework
Every Robotics session is structured to support both engineering logic and creative design:
Learn
Students are introduced to engineering and coding principles through real-world applications.
Prototype
They build a LEGO® robot that mirrors real-life functionality and mechanical behaviour.
Code
From pseudocode to full programming languages, students bring their machines to life through structured coding tasks.
Experiment & Imagine
Children test, adjust, and rework their code—exploring how changes affect performance and imagining new ways their robots can interact with the world.
Program Outcomes
Robotics helps students:
- Develop algorithmic, logical, and procedural thinking
- Solve complex problems by combining coding with engineering design
- Improve mathematical and systems-based processing
- Strengthen time management and collaboration
- Build media and information literacy
Robotics Subjects
- Software engineering: Commands, Terms Loops, Planning methods, Dynamic programming, Applied mathematics, Efficiency, Interfacing
- Complex missions: Instead of single tasks, robots perform a complex set of tasks
- Multiple interfaces: Children learn to input via 4 different sensors.
- 3D machine movement: Angular movement control along the Z axis.
- Fun robots: Bionic hand, Trash remover, Colour Sorter, Domino stacker, Line path follower, Dancing robot, etc.

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.

The program was very good and my daughter fully enjoyed the engagement and participation

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!!

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.
