Please pack a nut-free snack, lunch, and water bottle.

Workshop Highlights:

  • Programming skills: They'll develop essential coding skills by programming robots to solve urban challenges.

  • Creative problem-solving: Urban-themed challenges will enhance their ability to think critically and find innovative solutions.

  • Team collaboration: Students will strengthen teamwork and communication as they work together to build and refine their robotic designs.

  • Engineering design principles: They'll apply engineering principles to construct, test, and evaluate robotics solutions tailored to urban city exploration.

  • City Shapers™ is a school holiday-exclusive theme inspired by the FIRST® LEGO® League “City Shaper™” challenge — expertly adapted by Rocket Academy into an engaging 2-day hands-on experience for primary school students.

    In this immersive camp, kids step into the roles of architects, engineers, and planners as they build, code, and collaborate to reimagine the cities of tomorrow. Through age-appropriate challenges, students explore how we design spaces that are more accessible, resilient, and community-focused — all while learning through LEGO®, coding, and play.

    Our holiday program is hands-on, screen-smart, and packed with fun challenges that bring STEM to life.

  • For junior primary students new to coding and robotics. Hands-on play meets guided storytelling in this fun-filled intro to building, thinking, and problem-solving.
