Last Monday, our first Character & Empowerment Class gave Club girls a hands-on introduction to STEAM learning led by student engineers from the Oshkosh Area School District’s nationally recognized FIRST Robotics team.
Throughout four interactive stations, girls learned how engineering and creativity connect in real ways by creating binary code bead patterns to understand how computers communicate, building with BriQ LEGO systems to practice problem-solving and structure, reading an empowering story, and designing LED bracelets to explore simple circuits and electrical flow.
Club girls also saw a live demonstration of the team's competition robot that was built in just six and a half weeks, showing how design, coding, and teamwork come together in high-level robotics.
Most importantly, girls left with new exposure to STEAM skills, hands-on confidence, and a clearer understanding that engineering and innovation are spaces where they belong.
On July 29th, ladies in the community are invited to attend Afternoon Tea, sponsored by Kimberly-Clark, at The Gibson Social Club. This event is a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the girl's class accomplishments and hear about the difference the Club makes in the lives of children!
