Robotics workshops are an ideal way to captivate young minds and
stimulate critical thinking. We are happy to arrange robotics workshops
for groups, such as conventional school groups, or scout groups. All Storming
Robots enrichment programs are tailored to the specified grade level and
time frame.
Key Activities
