Build. Code. Compete.
A practical robotics experience where students assemble a working robot, learn programming logic, solve engineering challenges, and compete in a friendly mini robotics tournament.
New camp cycle
The camp experience
Assemble the robot chassis, wheels, motors, sensors, snap-on electronics, and gripper.
Use beginner-friendly programming logic to make the robot move, respond, and complete missions.
Test, troubleshoot, adjust, and think like an engineer when the first design does not work perfectly.
Take part in a friendly mini robotics tournament built around teamwork, precision, and strategy.
From the latest camp
Watch students test movement, positioning, and strategy.
See the hands-on collaboration that powers every session.
Six-day student curriculum
The six-day robotics plan has been converted into a take-home activity booklet for registered students, with guided activities that support hands-on building, beginner-friendly coding, testing, reflection, and practice beyond the camp session.
Students model the tournament as a simple Scratch game and learn events, movement, boundaries, and logic.
Students meet the robot brain, connect snap-on electronics, and upload a successful hardware test.
Teams build the drivetrain, wire the motors, and tune forward, backward, left, and right movement.
Students pair the robot by Bluetooth and complete safe driver drills using phone control commands.
Teams mount the gripper, practise object pickup, explore sensor ideas, and run timed practice matches.
Students complete final inspection, compete in the mini tournament, and present their design improvements.
Registered students receive a printed booklet with daily goals, build steps, homework tasks, wiring diagrams, troubleshooting logs, tournament scoring sheets, and parent sign-off spaces.

Junior Instructor
Jayvaughn Bigford brings current student leadership, robotics competition experience, and a strong passion for engineering to EduTech STEM Academy's Robotics Camp. As a CAPE science student at Waterloo Secondary School, he helps younger campers connect robotics ideas to the real classroom skills they are building in science, mathematics, technology, and problem-solving.
Jayvaughn serves as Head Boy/Head Prefect, Astronomy Club President, and Chief Engineer of the Waterloo Secondary School Robotics Club. His STEM journey includes FIRST LEGO League, UTT Sustain-a-bots, FIRST Tech Challenge, the NASA Marsfarm Project, and the NASA Space University Camp.
At the NASA Space University Camp, Jayvaughn earned 3rd Place Overall Champion, 1st Place in the Rocket Build and Launch Competition, and 2nd Place in the Thermal Shield Engineering Design Challenge. His technical strengths include robotics design and assembly, electronics troubleshooting, Arduino programming, and ESP32 programming.
Proven robotics leadership
The Waterloo Secondary School Robotics Club was established in 2019 by Mr. Danual Bridgemohan and Mr. Jerome Ramdahin to inspire students in robotics, engineering, computer science, and STEM education.
When FIRST LEGO League came to Trinidad and Tobago, Waterloo competed nationally on two occasions and earned a trophy for outstanding performance before the programme was discontinued locally.
The club's innovative proposal was selected among the top twelve finalists in UTT's SUSTAINABOTS Competition, earning two Arduino Robotics Kits to support electronics and programming projects.
On 27 June 2026, the club competed in the FIRST Tech Challenge against nine secondary schools and earned the Team Connect Award for collaboration, sportsmanship, and engagement with other teams.
