In today’s fast-changing world, robotics is more than just an extracurricular activity; it is a gateway to future-ready skills. It nurtures critical thinking, problem-solving, digital literacy, coding fluency, teamwork, resilience, and innovation. At Sun and Shield Primary & Junior School, we have seen firsthand how robotics transforms learners. It empowers them to ask questions, test ideas, and build solutions. It is not just about machines, it is about minds in motion.
To parents, if you are wondering whether robotics is worth your child’s time, the answer is a resounding yes. In the 21st century, digital literacy is not optional; it is essential. Robotics offers a playful yet powerful way to prepare children for a future where technology and imagination go hand in hand.
