Your child's first robot, built with their own hands.
The very first step on the NEbots robotics path. Students meet the micro:bit, a real microcontroller used in classrooms worldwide, and use drag-and-drop blocks to make it sense light, sound and movement. Nothing is simulated. By the end of the course every child has built a robot that reacts to the world around it, and can explain how it works.
Ages
7-12
Duration
12 sessions
Format
In-school & weekend batches
All micro:bit kits, motors, sensors and batteries are provided during class. Students take their final build home at the end of the level.
6 levels, from your first spark to showcase day. Follow the trail.
Light up the LED grid, write your name in code, and learn what a microcontroller actually is.
Buttons, shake, light and temperature. Make the board react to what you do to it.
Crocodile clips, buzzers and motors. Your first real circuit, built and debugged by hand.
Mount the board on a chassis and drive it. Steering, speed and stopping, all in code.
Add an obstacle sensor so the robot decides for itself when to turn.
Teams demonstrate their robots to parents and explain how each part works.
Show off what you built, take your projects home, and level up to the next stage.
Then what?
Next: RoboSaplings
Every NEbots course is a rung on the same ladder, from first sprout to full canopy. Nothing gets repeated, and nothing gets skipped.
Book a free demo class and let your child try RoboSeeds before they enrol.

Build robots that talk to the internet.
AI isn't magic, and your child can prove it.
