What Other Robotics Workshops and Programs Does Robotics Offer Outside School Incursions?
Robotics (robotics.com.au) runs four program types beyond its in-school incursions: Out of School Workshops, School Holiday Workshops, Leadership Workshops, and Camps, plus an NDIS Programs stream. These sit alongside the school incursion range (Pre-School, Junior, Middle and Senior School) and Robot STEM Workshops. If you are looking for robotics activities that happen outside the classroom timetable — after school, in the holidays, or as a camp — these are the relevant pages to check.
Out of School Workshops
These are the workshops delivered outside the standard school incursion format. The site lists them as a distinct program category under School Programs/Workshops, separate from the Hands on STEM Incursions.
They suit families and organisations wanting robotics and STEM activity that is not tied to a school booking. The site does not publish specific age bands, durations or locations for this category on the pages reviewed, so treat the workshop listing itself as the starting point and confirm details when you enquire or book.
School Holiday Workshops
School Holiday Workshops are a separate program line aimed at the holiday period, when regular school incursions are not running.
- They are grouped with the other workshop types rather than with the incursion programs.
- They are listed as their own entry in the site navigation, so they can be booked or enquired about independently of a school.
If your goal is to keep a child engaged in robotics during a school break, this is the category to look at rather than the incursion pages.
Leadership Workshops
Leadership Workshops form another distinct program. They are listed alongside the out-of-school and holiday workshops, which suggests they are aimed at developing leadership capabilities through robotics and STEM activity rather than at introductory robot building alone.
The site does not detail the target age group, format or prerequisites for this stream in the material reviewed. If leadership development is the outcome you want, ask specifically about this program when you make contact.
Camps
Camps are offered as a separate program type. They differ from the workshop formats in that they run over a camp structure rather than a single session.
Because the site does not publish camp dates, venues or age ranges on the pages reviewed, the practical step is to use the Book Online page or the Contact page to ask what is currently scheduled.
NDIS Programs
Robotics also lists NDIS Programs as a program category. This indicates the organisation offers programs aligned with NDIS funding arrangements, alongside its school and workshop offerings.
The site does not state eligibility rules, funding mechanics or pricing for this stream in the material reviewed. Those are individual circumstances, so confirm directly with Robotics rather than assuming coverage.
Robot STEM Workshops
Robot STEM Workshops appear as a further category under School Programs/Workshops. They are listed separately from the Hands on STEM Incursions, so they are worth checking if you want a workshop format rather than a full incursion.
How to Choose Between Them
| Program | Best suited to | What to confirm before booking |
|---|---|---|
| Out of School Workshops | Robotics activity outside school hours | Age range, location, session length |
| School Holiday Workshops | Holiday-period engagement | Dates, venue, age group |
| Leadership Workshops | Building leadership through STEM | Format, target participants |
| Camps | Immersive multi-day activity | Dates, venue, age range |
| NDIS Programs | Participants using NDIS funding | Eligibility, funding arrangements |
| Robot STEM Workshops | Workshop-format robotics sessions | Content level, group size |
Booking and Next Steps
The site directs bookings through its Book Online page, with a Resources section, Blog, Shop and Contact page also available. For any of the out-of-school, holiday, leadership, camp or NDIS programs, the site does not publish full schedules or prices on the pages reviewed, so the reliable path is:
- Open the Book Online page to see what can be reserved directly.
- Use the Contact page to ask about the specific program type, age group and current availability.
- For NDIS Programs, raise your funding situation directly so eligibility can be confirmed.
The organisation behind the programs, Kevin and Pauline, has been running robotics education for over 20 years across schools and other educational organisations, which is the background context for these non-incursion offerings.
