Yesterday, we hosted a LEGO and Robotics workshop at Sion Hill College, Dublin, and it was an incredible experience! The students' enthusiasm highlighted the power of hands-on STEM learning and the importance of encouraging young women to pursue careers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.

Women in STEM: Breaking Barriers
STEM has long been male-dominated, but that’s changing. Workshops like ours empower young women to

explore coding, engineering, and robotics—fields where their creativity and problem-solving skills shine.
Hands-On Learning
Students worked in teams to design, build, and program robots using LEGO kits. The students quickly grasped the basics and achieved amazing results. Seeing their confidence grow was truly inspiring!
Why Women in Coding Matters
Coding is a crucial skill in today’s digital world, yet women remain underrepresented. Encouraging girls to learn coding early fosters innovation and ensures diverse perspectives shape future technologies.

Looking Ahead
Our workshop at Sion Hill reinforced the importance of inclusive STEM education. We’re excited to continue inspiring future female innovators!
