Design & Build uses LEGO Mindstorms EV3 equipment to teach children the value of technology & engineering, problem solving, communication and team work. Over 10 weeks participants will work in groups and learn to build a range of pre-designed robots then remotely control it using a tablet. Depending on progress participants may learn to programme their robots, or design and build their own unique robot.
The programme is open to primary school children aged 9-12 years. New participants will be registered first.
