The FIRST Lego League (FLL) is the world's biggest school student robotics competition and Royal Robotics is here to teach you everything you need to know to set you up for success! During our fun-packed session, we will teach you robotics concepts like building with strength and integrity, coding a robot to complete challenges and so much more! And the best part? Everything we learn will be used in fun and engaging mini-games and challenges along the way!

Learn these skills through a hands-on session with world-renowned, internationally award-winning students as personal educators! Build and construct your own robots to complete FLL-style challenges and then program using world-leading coding techniques with real-world applications!
