Can you code a robot to escape the maze — with no remote control at all?
About this Event

In this competition, participants will use Scratch programming in the Sphero EDU app to program a Sphero BOLT to navigate a maze autonomously. You’ll experiment with movement, timing, and logic — then bring your robot to life with colourful LEDs and animations.

No coding experience is needed — just curiosity and creativity.
Bonus points for robots that are lively, expressive, or full of personality!

All equipment is provided. Come along and see if your code can conquer the maze.
Age 6-16. Knowledge of SCRATCH & Presence of parent needed. 1 ticket per competing TEAM please!
