🌟 Robotics & Programming 101 (FLL Challenge Competition Ready) 

This program is designed for advanced learners eager to take their robotics journey to the next level. Through hands-on engineering and coding challenges, students will strengthen their robotics design, programming, and problem-solving skills needed to compete in FIRST LEGO League Challenge—all without the pressure of competition. Using LEGO SPIKE Prime, participants will learn how to build reliable robots, write precise code, and refine their strategies through real-world robotics challenges.


πŸ’‘Program Highlights

Students will dive into advanced robotics concepts including mechanical design, sensor integration, and coding for accuracy and efficiency. These skills form the technical backbone of competitive robotics success.

Hands-On Mission Training

Every session introduces new FLL-inspired missions. Students will practice breaking down complex problems into achievable steps, designing and refining their robot builds, and iterating their code until their missions run consistently.

Competition Simulation

While this is not a competitive team, students will experience the structure, pace, and problem-solving style of FLL competitions, preparing them for future robotics seasons.

Teamwork & Collaboration

Collaboration is a cornerstone of engineering. Students will work in small teams to brainstorm, design, and test solutions, strengthening their leadership, communication, and resilience in the process.

Preparation for Future Success

By the end of the program, students will have the confidence and technical skills to excel in competitive robotics teams, advanced STEM programs, or independent innovation projects.
