What is Robotics (robotics.com.au)?
Robotics (robotics.com.au) is an Australian robotics and STEM education provider that delivers hands-on incursion programs and workshops to schools and other educational organisations. Its programs are designed for students from pre-school through to senior school (around years 9–10), and it also runs out-of-school, school holiday, leadership and camp programs, plus NDIS programs. The site is aimed at teachers, school coordinators and parents looking to book a robotics or STEM experience rather than at people buying robots or components.
What the site offers
The core of the business is school incursion programs — sessions brought into the classroom and tailored to each school's needs. According to the site, these programs "make solid connections with science, technology and digital technologies."
Programs are grouped by student level:
| Program | Target students | Focus described on site |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-school incursions | Ages ~3–4 | Stimulating curious minds; problem-solving even at this age |
| Junior school incursions | Foundation year to grade 4 | Connection between engineering and robotic construction, coding and design |
| Middle school incursions | Grade 5 to year 8 | Innovating and collaborating to solve real-life problems |
| Senior school incursions | Year 9/10 level | Increasingly complex problem-solving; academic and career pathways |
Beyond incursions, the site lists Robot STEM Workshops, Out of School Workshops, School Holiday Workshops, Leadership Workshops, Camps and NDIS Programs.
Who runs it
The site states that Kevin and Pauline have been "Innovators in Robotics Education for over 20 years," creating "generations of creative and curious minds" in schools and other educational organisations. That long track record is the main credibility signal presented on the homepage.
What clients say
The site includes testimonials from educators. Marg Scott, Network Improvement Officer for the Grampians Region, describes the programs as offering "thinking well beyond standard project learning… energy and enthusiasm – so much more than just a robot." Joanne Kre refers to children acting as scientists and inventors investigating forces and energy through robot mechanics, calling them "true light bulb learning moments."
How to book
The site directs visitors to a Book Online page to secure a program date. If you are a teacher or coordinator, that is the practical starting point; the individual program pages (Pre-School, Junior, Middle, Senior) provide more detail before you commit.
Is it for you?
- Yes, if you are a school, pre-school or educational organisation in Australia wanting an in-class robotics/STEM incursion, or a parent looking for holiday or out-of-school workshops.
- No, if you are looking to purchase robotics hardware, kits or components — this is an education and program provider, not a retailer.
The site does not publish pricing on the pages reviewed, so costs and availability need to be confirmed through the booking or contact process.
