🤖 RoboCup at QSITE CreativITy 2026!

It was fantastic to see RoboCup Junior educator and coach Bianca Willis from presenting at CreativITy 2026: Human + Machine – Reimagining the Classroom.

Bianca shared her experiences developing a robotics program at Fairholme and coaching RoboCup teams, including the lessons learned from supporting students as they design, build, program and problem solve their way through robotics challenges.

Fairholme College also hosted the Darling Downs Regional RoboCup event, creating more opportunities for students in the region to get involved in robotics. Bianca has been instrumental in growing our regional RoboCup community and supporting its continued development.

It is always great to see members of our RoboCup community sharing their experience with other educators and creating more opportunities for students to get involved in robotics.

A huge thank you to Bianca for sharing her experiences and for everything she does to support her students and the RoboCup community, and to Jay Wright for capturing these moments in photos!
