Young Engineers offers unique STEM programs where children have fun while learning critical skills for the digital age!
What is STEM?
Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) are becoming increasingly important due to technology pervading every aspect of our lives. A STEM education offers not just information but the ability to process that information correctly. STEM skills include:
✓ Theoretical concepts
✓ Practical application of theory
✓ Critical thinking
✓ Problem solving
✓ Data analysis
✓ Engineering
✓ Physics
✓ Coding
At Young Engineers:
✓ Students build and program motorised LEGO® models✓ These models are working prototypes of real world machines
✓ Different levels of the program cater to a range of ages and abilities
✓ Children build everything from washing machines, power plants and helicopters to human and animal robots. All the machines move and work at the press of a button!
For the parents it’s an education, for the children it’s a game. What Young Engineers delivers is e² – Education with Entertainment.

About the Franchisee
Hi, I’m Sonia from the leafy green South East suburbs of Melbourne!
I have 1 son and my background has been in Special Ed and I strongly support Inclusion of all children irrespective of their ability. Each of our kids are Unique and Special!
There is no single approach or modality when it comes to shaping the curious minds of our children who are tomorrow’s future just as there are no one size fits all!
Being a parent myself I fully understand the transition that kids go through at different stages in their lives. It is important to expose and nurture young minds to a range of experiences that help tap into their individuality and uniqueness that helps them find their passion be it in Science, Technology, Engineering or Maths (STEM) equipping them with skills they can use across all fields of study and jobs.
Some children are visual learners while others are auditory and some others kinaesthetic. At Young Engineers our program encompasses all these 3 distinct learning styles while having fun with LEGO.
It gives me great pleasure to be able to offer these programs to our young kids where they will get a hands-on approach to futuristic learning!
