What is FLL?
FLL, which stands for FIRST Lego League, is an international event organised by FIRST, designed to introduce STEM to children through real-world problem-solving experiences. Children aged 4-16 participate in a guided, global robotics program using LEGO® technology so they can help build a better future together!
Our Services
Schools engage Creative Playground Education to help coach teams of students who are selected to participate in this annual program. When we partner with the school for an FLL program, we work closely with the class teacher and your team of students in the following areas:

Pre-season robotics training

Team collaboration and appreciation of professional core values

Season robotics coaching

Guiding the class teacher for research project and presentation

Mission strategising and implementation

In-person event participation - expo or competition
In Explore, teams of students ages 6-10 focus on the fundamentals of engineering as they explore real-world problems, learn to design and code, and create unique solutions made and powered by LEGO Education SPIKE™ Essential or WeDo 2.0.
Friendly competition is at the heart of Challenge, as teams of students ages 9-16 engage in research, problem-solving, coding and engineering as they build and program an autonomous LEGO robot that navigates the missions of a robot game.
