What happens when children combine creativity, teamwork and hands-on engineering?
They build confidence, resilience and problem-solving skills — and have an incredible time doing it!
Designed for children aged 5–12 years, Young Engineers’ programs combine engineering, robotics, electronics and creative thinking in a fun and engaging environment where learning feels like play.
From after-school STEM classes and school incursions to vacation care workshops, robotics programs and school holiday camps, Young Engineers – Greater Brisbane helps children develop future-ready skills while building confidence, communication and teamwork.
Using customised LEGO® models, robotics technology, electronics and interactive design challenges, children are encouraged to explore, experiment, create and problem solve through exciting real-world applications. Along the way, they strengthen critical thinking, resilience, creativity and social skills that support learning both inside and outside the classroom.
With programs operating in more than 45 countries worldwide, Young Engineers has become a globally recognised leader in hands-on STEM education for children.
After-School STEM Classes That Children Look Forward To
Young Engineers after-school STEM classes provide children with an exciting way to explore engineering, robotics and coding each week in a familiar school environment.
Delivered directly on school grounds across Brisbane, these classes transform the end of the school day into a world of creative builds, engineering challenges and interactive discovery. Children work together to design, build, test and improve moving models while learning how engineering and technology work in the real world.
Every session encourages children to think creatively, collaborate with others and persist through challenges as they strengthen problem-solving skills and confidence in a supportive and engaging environment.
Whether a child already loves LEGO®, robotics and building or is simply curious about how things work, Young Engineers creates an experience that sparks imagination and excitement for learning.
School Holiday Camps Packed with Creativity, Robotics & Engineering Fun
Looking for engaging school holiday activities in Brisbane that are educational, interactive and genuinely exciting for children?
Young Engineers Holiday Camps combine creativity, engineering, robotics and hands-on learning in high-energy holiday experiences that keep children engaged throughout the school holidays.
Children dive into exciting engineering builds, robotics activities, coding challenges and collaborative games designed to inspire creativity, teamwork and innovation. Rather than simply following instructions, students are encouraged to experiment, solve problems, improve their builds and bring their ideas to life through hands-on exploration.
These highly interactive camps help children develop confidence, independence and resilience while having fun, making friends and discovering new interests in engineering, robotics and technology.
For many families, the camps provide a valuable screen-free holiday activity where children remain active, social and creatively engaged in a structured learning environment.
