A dedicated room to be built at Oakleigh South Primary to facilitate innovative learning of technology open to community. Using the inspirational power of robotics, specialised educators, teachers and community volunteers will deliver weekend, afterschool and holiday workshops to: •Kickstart kids passion for robotics and learning technology for life •Empower parents learning cybersecurity and skills to support children’s digital learning •Boost teaching staff with skills to deliver digital technologies curriculum •Inspire and educate next generation of technology leaders and learners from our community. Currently the school does not have a dedicated room to engage community participation to make this happen.
Our community, made up largely of hard-working time-poor families, share a common goal to develop our children’s skills for the future. Convenient location of the lab on school grounds will eliminate travel for over 1200 Oakleigh South Primary School students and teachers. Children and adults from the community and 5 nearby schools within minutes-drive will enjoy access to after-hours and weekend robotics/STEM and cybersecurity workshops. Free and some low fee workshops will offer collaborative learning to stimulate critical thinking, creativity and innovation. Families in our community will be better engaged and supported, developing a passion for technology and life-long learning.

A wonderful initiative to encourage STEM from a young age to both girls and boys.
It is so important that girls and boys are supported to develop a life-long passion for learning, critical thinking and creativity.

Such a wonderful opportunity for the children to explore and develop their skills in robotics
Being located at OSPS would make it a very convenient location for many .
OSPS convenient location will enable access by wider community.

The kids would LOVE this, as many already find robotics and STEM engaging. But with such a big school community we really need to cater for them so we can deliver effectively.
This community really needs this project. Please vote and share!
