Kylie from Hutt City Libraries

Calling all wahine toa! Mums, stepmums, grandmothers, and aunts! Have you wanted to try your hand at building, coding, and driving a robot?

Bring along your 7-11 year old daughter, grand-daughter or niece to this free workshop and find out how much fun robotics is!

***Spaces are limited. Registration required. Book in by emailing LibrariesEvents@huttcity.govt.nz.***

Workshops will be facilitated by the team at Kiwibots, including female engineers so you can ask any questions you like of someone from the STEM space!

About Girl Powered Workshops:

The Girl Powered workshops are a supportive environment and opportunity to create awesome STEM experiences for girls that can lead to a better reflection of the diversity in our communities. Despite all genders showing equal interest in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) in primary school, women only represent 30% of the STEM workforce.

These workshops by Kiwibots are a way for us to encourage inter-generational engagement in STEM, creating a safe space for our girls and encouraging them to take part and have a go. Join us for a fun robotics day out – no experience necessary and a fabulous opportunity to try your hand at robotics! We can’t wait to see you there.

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I dance in the sky with green and gold, a spectacle few are lucky to behold; I’m best seen in the south, a celestial sight—what am I, lighting up the New Zealand night?
