The WSRO Goa Regional Championship 2025, co-organised by Pratham Club and LEGO Goa, unfolded on 29th June at Saraswat Vidyalaya, Mapusa. This dynamic event brought together young robotics enthusiasts, their families, and educators to celebrate creativity, teamwork, and the power of STEM learning.
Students showcased innovative robots designed to solve real-world challenges, compete in thrilling tasks, and demonstrate next-generation technology in action. From intricate builds to impressive coding solutions, the championship highlighted how robotics ignites curiosity and develops essential skills such as problem-solving, critical thinking, and collaboration.
For parents, events like WSRO offer a glimpse into the exciting future their children can create when they explore robotics early on. For young learners, it’s an inspiring opportunity to discover their potential and gain confidence by competing with like-minded peers.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to all participants for their hard work and congratulate every winner on their well-deserved success. If your child dreams of building the robots of tomorrow, now is the perfect time to encourage their journey into STEM and robotics!
