ERPS STEM Week 2023

Welcome to ERPS STEM WEEK - Year 6!

This year's theme is 'Transport', and specifically for Year 6, 'Vehicles and Town Planning'.

Your awesome teachers thought it would be really cool for you to get hands-on using the BBC micro:bit's, which have been really popular with other year groups. So this year, we're not only talking about transport, but getting to do some actual physical building as well as coding, testing, and debugging!

Don't forget - we're also thinking about how we can be sustainable engineers. Keep an eye on our SDG's.


We have 4 categories of coding challenges for you this year :)

Traffic Light

A super important feature in any town or city, and colourful too!

Street Lamp

Keeping the darkness at bay all over the place - how smart can they be?

Access Barrier

For keeping people and vehicles out, as well as making sure we stay safe.

Buggy

Our own motorised buggy, using electric motors and radio control!

Solar Power

A small experiment using solar power, our micro:bit, and a fan!
