RoboAquaria Workshop Inspires Students and Parents at Ypsonas School Event

On June 1st, 2025, the 3rd Primary School of Ypsonas hosted a vibrant day of workshops titled “Children and Parents, Discovering Together”, bringing together families for hands-on learning experiences. As part of this multifaceted event, Cyprus-based partners, CARDET and INNOVADE presented an interactive robotics workshop under the European project RoboAquaria.

The RoboAquaria session engaged parents and children in a collaborative exploration of how technology and environmental education intersect. Participants built and programmed a small-scale water pump, learning how robotics can contribute to sustainability and eco-conscious practices. Using sensors and control buttons, families also took part in interactive challenges focused on ecological awareness.

The workshop highlighted the potential of robotics to promote creativity, teamwork, and responsible environmental behaviour. It served as an inspiring example of how technology can be harnessed to teach young learners and their families about sustainable development in an accessible and engaging way.

RoboAquaria project focuses on the protection of marine environments by integrating Educational Robotics into the classroom and building teachers’ competences to use them.
