Each course runs for approximately 1.5 – 2 hours, depending on age and skill level of students.

We try our best to fit to your timetabled lessons to be as minimally disruptive as possible.

Our programs are best suited to students in grade 4 up to grade 9. However, each workshop can be enjoyed by students of any age.

We haven’t forgotten about the teachers either, ask us about our PD sessions too!

Both the robotics and drones workshops have a maximum capacity of 20 students, with 3D printing capping off at 10.

These numbers are due to equipment limitations, and do not have much flexibility.

All course materials (robots, drones, laptops, etc.) are provided by Red Dirt Robotics, so there is no need for you to supply any equipment for the programs. However, if your organisation has its own fleet of robots, we may be able to adapt our program to use your gear, helping students become more familiar with a platform they already have access to (platform dependent).

For the venue, we simply need a classroom large enough to accommodate tables and chairs for each student, along with adequate floor space for activities. For the drones program, a larger room (such as a hall or library) is required to ensure enough space for safe flight.

Additionally, a projector or TV screen is needed.

Each of our programs starts at $1200, plus travel expenses. We also offer bundle deals, providing a reduced rate when two or more programs are booked for the same visit.

While we recognise this is a significant amount, we do everything possible to keep costs down. This includes seeking grant funding, camping out of our vehicle, and partnering with local organisations to help subsidise expenses.

We can also direct you to funding opportunities that, while not available to Red Dirt Robotics, may be accessible to your organisation, enabling you to engage our services.
