School of Robotics Opened in Zaporizhzhia

School number 5 won a grant from the competition of social initiatives “We are the city” to create a “Forward to the Future” school of robotics for its pupils.

— Such ideas are very valuable in our time and need to be supported. Purposefulness, ingenuity and energy of our children are the key to development and a successful future. Zaporizhstal Works has always supported young people’s initiatives. Today the school of robotics started, where children will learn in the field of IT. In the future, they will be able to become true professionals and many doors will be open for them, ” – commented the Head of Choosing, Manning & Staff Development of Zaporozhstal Works, Sergey Koipysh.

The school of robotics was organized on the basis of a programming hobby group that had been functioning at the school. New opportunities have allowed the school administration to expand the program for more pupils and for more diverse projects that they can implement. All classes for pupils will be free.

Thanks to the grant, the school purchased the required equipment for the classes: sets of a special programmable and electronic design kit, a 3D printer and much more.

At the opening of the school, children demonstrated what they had already learned in the programming hobby group. They showed programmed robots that danced and showed everyone how a virtual reality helmet works.
