DPS Coding and Robotics 

Robotics at Doncaster Primary School is an Exciting Learning Opportunity for Your Child!

Robotics is a rapidly growing field that is becoming increasingly important in our society. With the advancement of technology, robotics is becoming an essential skill in various fields, from engineering and manufacturing to medicine and agriculture. Therefore, it's crucial to prepare our children for this digital age by teaching them robotics skills from an early age. 

Some primary schools in Australia are now offering robotics classes to their students and we, at DPS, are thrilled to offer this opportunity to our students.

These classes aim to teach children the basics of robotics and how to program and control robots. This exciting and hands-on approach to learning not only engages children's interest in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) but also helps them develop essential skills such as problem-solving, critical thinking, and creativity.

In these classes, children learn to build and program robots using various tools and materials. They are encouraged to experiment and come up with their unique ideas to solve challenges. The robots used in these classes range from simple and basic ones, like a maze-solving robot, to more complex units using Arduino boards.

Early feedback from our students shows that our program is succeeding in all areas, specially in the "learning while having fun" area. 

Our Doncaster Primary students are discovering the world of robotics while developing important skills that will prepare them for their future.
