Things worth
turning up to.
Competitions, open days, holiday camps and assessment sittings. Some are for our own students, some are open to anyone.

School holiday robotics camp
Four mornings, one robot. For children who have never taken a class with us.
A short standalone camp over the school holidays, built for children who have never taken a class with us and want to find out whether they like it before committing to a term. Four mornings, one robot: build it, program it, break it, fix it, take it through a small challenge on the last day. No prior experience needed and nothing to bring — all materials are provided.

December assessment sitting
The second of the two yearly assessment windows. A pass certifies the level and opens the next course.
Assessments are held twice a year, in June and December. Students sit a mock test in class first — passing the mock is what qualifies them to register for the real thing, and registration closes one month before the sitting. There is no exam fee; sitting an assessment simply consumes one session from an existing package. A pass produces a certificate tied to the level and the course, verifiable by anyone at learn.advaspire.io/verify.

WRO Malaysia national final
Our Semenyih and Kepong teams compete in the World Robot Olympiad national final.
The World Robot Olympiad runs the same season worldwide: teams design, build and program a robot to complete a set challenge on a standard mat, then run it under time pressure in front of judges. Our teams qualify through the regional rounds and travel to the national final together. Parents are welcome to come and watch — the robot table is the best possible answer to what a term of classes is actually for.

Parent open day
Come and see a class run. Students demo what they built that term.
An ordinary class, run in front of the people paying for it. Students demo the projects they finished that term and explain how they built them, which is a harder test than any written one. Coaches are on hand afterwards for the questions a website cannot answer — whether a particular child is ready for text coding, what the jump from Scratch to Python actually involves, how the assessment weeks work.
READY?
Try a class. Free.
A 90-minute session, a real project, and something your child takes home. No card, no deposit, nothing to cancel.
