“WRO Starter” is WRO Switzerland’s robotics offer for the youngest. We offer a course in which children aged 6 to 10 can gain their first experience with a Lego robot. The aim is for the children to take part in the starter category competition.

• For girls and boys from 6 to 10 years old
• No previous knowledge required
• Programming with image blocks
• Robotics sets (Lego Spike Essential) can be borrowed for a deposit of CHF 50
• Participation in the course and the competition is free of charge
• Registration for the course for each child via the registration link at the bottom of the page. Registration for the competition takes place during the course

• An exciting task: among other things, the robot has to rescue a deer from a forest fire and bring a sea turtle to safety.
• For teams with 2 or 3 children – If you already have a partner, you can register together. Otherwise you can find a partner at the courses.
• Support from a coach (parent, teacher, other person over the age of 18)
