About RoboKids Academy

Inspiring Innovation Through Robotics Education

Our Story

Founded in 2017 by a team of passionate educators and engineers, RoboKids Academy emerged from a simple belief: every child has the potential to be an innovator, creator, and problem-solver.

We started in a small garage in Toronto with just five students and a handful of robotics kits. Today, we serve thousands of students across 15 cities in Canada, but our mission remains the same - making robotics education accessible, engaging, and transformative for every child.

Our founders recognized that traditional education often doesn't prepare children for a technology-driven future. That's why we created programs that combine hands-on building, creative problem-solving, and collaborative learning in an environment where mistakes are learning opportunities.
