SOLAR TRACKER MINI PROJECT WORKSHOP
Last week, students participated in an exciting Mini Project Workshop where they built a Solar Tracking System using sensors and Arduino programming.
Through this hands-on activity, students learned how solar panels can automatically follow the direction of sunlight to improve energy efficiency. The workshop introduced key concepts in electronics, sensors, automation, and coding while encouraging creativity, logical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
The session provided a valuable real-world learning experience and inspired students to explore sustainable technologies and innovative solutions.
COLOURING COMPETITION 2026 🎨
YABOT Academy recently organised the Colouring Competition 2026, bringing together young artists for a vibrant celebration of creativity and imagination.
Students enthusiastically expressed their ideas through colourful artworks, showcasing their artistic skills and unique perspectives. The event created a joyful atmosphere filled with enthusiasm, confidence, and friendly competition.
The competition concluded with an exciting prize distribution ceremony, where the top performers were recognised for their outstanding creativity and effort. It was a wonderful celebration of imagination, talent, and the limitless potential of young minds!
MAKER’S LAB HIGHLIGHTS ✨
Last week’s Makers Lab session introduced students to SimLab, a virtual design platform where they learned to design, test, and simulate projects without using physical components.
As part of the session, students created a spiral slide model to simulate a marble ball run, exploring concepts of design, motion, and problem-solving through an interactive virtual environment.
Through hands-on simulation activities, students discovered how virtual tools can be used to visualize ideas, experiment with different designs, and improve their projects through testing and observation. The session also introduced them to the fundamentals of digital prototyping and engineering design. By combining creativity with technology, students gained confidence in transforming their ideas into virtual models while developing critical thinking, spatial reasoning, and innovation skills.
