In the fall and winter (Sept-March) The Coding and Robotics Club is excited to use VEX robotics to spur innovation and excitement in our middle school program. A team/class of 6+ students come together in groups of 2-4 to build and then compete in VEX Robotic Competitions in the Seattle area, and possibly the world! To read more about the competitions please click here. Each middle signs up for one class but is welcome to come to any middle school class to work on their robot. In March we take a poll and continue on with where the kids want to go, drones, Arduino, Sumo Bots or whatever they are interested in! Please visit our Join Now page here to for times and days and to register!
VEX robots allows children to learn the engineering behind robots, the coding that enables it to work and collaboration with their teammates in a fun and exciting world.
VEX Go is an option during coding class for 3rd-5th graders while middle schoolers and high school students have classes dedicated purely to robotics and preparing for REC Foundation Competitions.
BCRC is developing the first Drone Team in Whatcom County! Each team of 6+ students will program and learn to fly their own drone, with the eye on competing in For The Win competition.
NOW, SOME OF THE FINE PRINT
Each team will be made of two members. We do our best to mix it up and find the best fit for your child!
We welcome and encourage you to bring your own team to build and then compete! Please see email us for more details and savings!
The cost of the robotics and drone classes will include one age appropriate VEX Robot system or Parrot Drone per team as well as entrance for 2 competitions in Seattle. All travel and other costs will be the responsibility of the team members.
