In the fall and winter (Sept-March) The Coding and Robotics Club is excited to use VEX robotics to spur innovation and excitement in our middle school program. A team/class of 6+ students come together in groups of 2-4 to build and then compete in our own VEX Robotic Competition! To read more about the competitions please click here. Each middle schooler signs up for one class but is welcome to come to any middle school class to work on their robot. After the competition they will move onto another long term project, designing, printing and building drones in Bellingham (spring of 2025) and building and testing underwater robots in Skagit! Please visit our Join Now page here for times and days and to register! Please also check out our Middle School Summer Robotics Camp to get a jump start on building!
Middle School Open House on Monday, Aug 26th from 6pm-8pm at our Bellingham Club House (3230 Meridian St)
VEX robots allow children to learn the engineering behind robots, the coding that enables them to work and collaboration with their teammates in a fun and exciting world.
VEX Go is an option during coding class for 3rd-5th graders while middle schoolers and high school students have classes dedicated purely to robotics and preparing for REC Foundation Competitions.
BCRC is developing the first Drone Team in Whatcom County! Each team of 6+ students will program and learn to fly their own drone, with the eye on competing in the Rapid Relay competition.
NOW, SOME OF THE FINE PRINT
Each team will be made of two members. We do our best to mix it up and find the best fit for your child!
We welcome and encourage you to bring your own team to build and then compete! Please email us for more details and savings!
The cost of the robotics and drone classes will include one age appropriate VEX Robot system or Drone per team.
