Robotics Club: Building the Future, One Bot at a Time

The Robotics CCA at Canberra Secondary School is a newly established club focused on the VEX V5 Robotics platform. The CCA provides students with hands-on experience in STEM through robot design, building, and programming. In just two years, the CCA has already made its mark by winning several awards in local and regional competitions. Students learn teamwork, engineering design principles and creative problem-solving as they prepare for national and international VEX tournaments.

VEX Robotics competitions challenge teams to design, build, and program robots to complete specific game objectives, testing both technical skills and strategic thinking.
