Robotics with Python and AI

Students build a VEX GO robot, then write Python to control it. They move from functions and loops to conditions and sensor input, and finish by using AI to interpret what the robot's sensors read.

DATES
Monday 28 to Thursday 31 December 2026
TIMES
2.5 hours a day. Several session times are available, so tell us which suits you.
AGES
8 to 10 years
SEATS
8 per camp. Book by 14 December 2026.

Best for: Ages 8 to 10 who are ready to type code.

Schedule

  1. MONDAY

    Build the robot

    Assemble a base robot and learn how its motors, sensors and brain work together.

  2. TUESDAY

    Python pathing

    Write first Python commands, using functions and parameters to program set routes.

  3. WEDNESDAY

    Loops and conditions

    Use for and while loops with if and else so the robot repeats tasks and makes decisions.

  4. THURSDAY

    Sensor feedback

    Read sensor data in Python and interpret it with AI so the robot adapts to its surroundings.

What's included

  • 10 hours of coaching, one coach for every five students
  • Text-based Python on VEX GO robots
  • A personalised report written by your child's coach
  • An engineering notebook documenting their work each day
