RoboCup Junior WA

Every year, from March to September, primary and secondary students from across WA design, build and code their own robots. Then they put them to the test by competing in an incredible robotic challenges

It’s as wonderful as it sounds and, as one of the state’s longest running, annual robotics competition, it shouldn’t be missed.

Workshops and competitions take place across Perth and regional WA throughout the year, culminating in the epic RoboCup Junior WA state event at Curtin Stadium in November. It’s here you’ll see robots give on-stage performances, play soccer and conduct mini search and rescue operations. For real.

Throughout the year, the RoboCup Junior WA committee provide a series of workshops and competitions across Perth and regional WA. These events culminate in the epic RoboCup Junior WA state event hosted by Scitech, with support from state event partners Rio Tinto.

With 200 teams, encompassing around 600 students from 50 metro and regional schools each year, it’s mechanical mayhem. So, what are you waiting for? Sign up and get ready to exterminate (or be exterminated).

Pretty as a picture! This natural photo frame is made up of Tamala Limestone, found along more than 1000km of WA coast, from Shark Bay to nearly Albany. More accurately called 'aeolian calcarenite', this type of rock is made up of broken shell fragments brought ashore by waves and wind, and cemented by calcium carbonate. . 📸: @nature_camping_kids_ . . . #perthlife #explorewa #thisiwa #westernaustralia #perthbeaches #hamersleypools #indianocean #natureswindow #geology #limestone #geologyrocks

The human brain is pretty incredible. It's made up of approximately 80 billion nerve cells, called neurons that need to talk to each to keep your body functioning and your mind ticking. Here you can see the connections between brain cells! 📸: Jason Kirk / Quynh Nguyen / @nikoninstruments . . . #microscopy #microscopic #underthemicroscope #mindblowing #neurons
