Robot and Coding Summer Camp (Week of Aug 11)

Camp week selection is based on ticket purchase

This summer camp is inspired by the FIRST® LEGO® League Challenge fostering project-based learning that’s impactful and FUN. Students enjoy the friendly teamwork and learning from FLL Challenge missions without the stress of intense competition. With flexible sessions available, you can choose the ticket that perfectly aligns with your family's schedule.

Students will enjoy the fun-filled experience of this week-long camp with daily instructional sessions and hands-on practice, and wrap up in the demonstration day on Friday. The program targets students ages 9 to 13 (grades 4-8). 7 options as follows:

• Week of June 16 (6/16/25 - 6/20/25)
• Week of July 7 (7/7/25 - 7/11/25)
• Week of July 14 (7/14/25 - 7/18/25)

• Week of August 04 (8/4/25 - 8/8/25)
• Week of August 11(8/11/25 - 8/15/25)

The sessions are where students explore STEM (science, technology, engineering, math) and delve into the captivating world of LEGO® robotics. They’ll learn to code, build, and program robots to tackle exciting game missions, all while developing problem-solving and teamwork skills.

Peer instructors empower students through problem-solving and hands-on learning, cultivating ownership of their educational journey.

Our program will equip your child with confidence and critical thinking skills valuable in any future interest. At Queen City Robotics Alliance (QCRA), we want to do more than teach coding. We want to inspire all girls and boys to use their talents and abilities to think outside the box, to channel their ideas creatively, and most importantly, to have fun!
