About Us
We are a community based robotics team founded in 2016 based in North Brisbane. We come from different schools and meet every weekend to build, code and play with robots. We actively mentor other community and school-based teams. We are all about robotics! We enjoy hosting our weekly Robotics Immersion Program for our younger students to build skills and confidence in STEM and robotics so they can participate in fun robotics competitions! The BotBuilders have several teams across multiple robotics competitions: FIRST Lego League, FIRST Tech Challenge, FIRST Robotics Competition and RoboRAVE.
We love all things robotics!
