Description

Flipped Robotics at Yarra Ranges Tech School invites students to explore the exciting world of competitive robotics through a hands-on, team-based design challenge. Participating schools receive a robotics kit and attend three immersive sessions at the Tech School, where students collaborate with industry mentors, refine their robot designs, and test them on official VEX Robotics competition fields. Over the course of the program, students learn the fundamentals of integrated systems, develop solutions for real-world challenges, and incorporate sensor data into decision-making processes. They break down complex engineering problems into manageable parts, working collaboratively to design, prototype, and improve their robots.


This program develops critical STEM and enterprise skills including collaboration, systems thinking, and iterative design. It also provides a launchpad for students interested in further robotics learning, offering a strong foundation for future participation in robotics competitions or specialised technology electives.
