Aquabots

It started with a call from the Ministry of Inspiration offering to come to school and run a aquabotics program for a day. Since we love anything to do with the swimming pool. we jumped on the opportunity and said yes.

Expecting simple plug and play robots we were pleasantly surprised and the kids were stoked to find out that there was a lot more involved in creating the robots. The kids had to cut pipes, solder and drill to build their robots and they did a really great job of it. Working in teams and autonomously following the instructions they built their robots until they were finally ready to test in the pool.

A bit of fine tuning and the robots were able to submerge and move around under the water. What a fantastic opportunity for the kids and a great way to learn new skills.
