With instruction and support from Steampunk Education instructors, kids learn how to build and code robots before facing off in a thrilling robot sumo battle, where the strongest bot wins!

Important information:

  • Participants must be able to read, as basic reading skills are required to use Scratch
  • Only 8 spots are available per day – registration is required, spaces fill up quickly!
  • Program is run at Almonte branch – 4pm to 6:30pm, July 14 – 25
  • Each child can ONLY attend ONE day – NOT multiple days.
