Simmatic Champions STEM Education…
Following Team Simmatic’s visit to AIR Wakefield – Automated Industrial Robotics, earlier this year, where our engineers hosted the Lunch & Learn Product Overview Roadshow, we’re delighted to highlight AIR Wakefield’s inspiring new initiative with local junior schools to advance STEM learning.
Supporting STEM in Our Community
Dale Simmonds, Managing Director of Simmatic Automation, presented Jan Stephens from AIR Wakefield with two Build-Your-Own Hydraulic Robot Arm kits and two Solar Powered Robot 12-in-1 science kits. These resources will support AIR Wakefield’s outreach in STEM education, encouraging hands-on learning and creative problem solving among students.
AIR Wakefield on the Importance of STEM
“AIR Wakefield is creating a partnership with several junior schools in the Wakefield area by supporting STEM education through integrated learning of science, tech, and engineering. Considering the significant growth and lucrative job opportunities within these fields, we feel STEM worthy of our involvement.
Our aim is to provide interactive visits to Automation House and presentations to schools using Robotics Kits as a STEM learning tool”
– Jan Stephens, AIR Wakefield
