We are so excited to be working with NMITE on a fantastic half-term ROBO ACADEMY!
Join the NMITE RoboAcademy and discover how robots are designed, built and programmed to address real-world challenges.
NMITE is back with a free, one-day hands-on robotics experience day, this time for ages 9-13 and 14-18!
Curious about how robots think, move and solve problems? Perfect for beginners, this interactive summer school introduces the fundamentals of robotics and programming in a fun, supportive and practical environment.
This programme is kindly supported by the Pride in Place programme, with priority release available for children and students who live in the Hunderton and South Wye area of Herefordshire.
