Technology for remote community children
"Very sad to hear that you cannot come up this year but would like to see you and your family back in 2021. The children talk about your family and ask when you are coming back. You create a great experience for the children and one they do not forget."
Frank Lawler PCYC 2020 Unfortunately, in 2020, due to the Corona Virus pandemic, the Australian government has restricted all visitors to First Nation communities. Therefore our activities are cancelled for this year. However we have sent our resources (all kits and documentation) to the PCYC for local community members to continue the work with the kids.

"I leave PCYC with some very fond memories not least of which was you and your lovely family visiting, and watching the joy your presence brought to the kids here. Thanks so much for imparting your passion to Palm!"

We are passionate about robotics and programming.
Remote community children with these interests are often not fortunate enough to have access to resources, whether people or hardware or software, to pursue their curiosity. They may not have the chance to participate in extra-curricular Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) activities. We want to bring that opportunity (and that fun) to them. |
