On April 8th, Hindu Vidyapeeth School in Lalitpur transformed into a vibrant hub of innovation and creativity as it hosted a STEM Exhibition from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM. The event brought together students, teachers, and parents to celebrate hands-on learning in the fields of science and robotics. I, Hrishav Raj Joshi, Robotics Coordinator at OLE Nepal, had the pleasure of supporting the school’s robotics team technically in preparing for this event.

The robotics corner was a highlight of the exhibition. With guidance and tools provided through OLE Nepal’s Artec Robotics Kit, students successfully designed and built four unique robotics modules:

• A Maze-Solving Robot that used sensors to navigate complex paths
• A Claw Machine operated through programmed logic and mechanical precision
• A Biped Robot that mimicked human walking motion
• A Dancing Spider, a fun and animated robot with synchronized limb movements
  

Each module reflected the students’ deep engagement and understanding of robotics principles like sensor integration, actuator control, and block-based programming. It was particularly heartening to see how creatively they applied their knowledge to solve problems and build something from scratch.

Beyond robotics, the exhibition also featured a science fair, where students presented a variety of models and experiments, ranging from physics demonstrations to environmental science projects. Students from all grade levels participated, showcasing a strong culture of inquiry and enthusiasm for STEM subjects.

What stood out the most was the dedication of the students, many of whom came to school during their holidays just to work on their projects and help organize the event. Their passion was visible in every corner of the exhibition hall, and their energy was contagious.

The event saw a great turnout from parents, community members, and school staff, who were amazed by the students’ creativity and technical skills. It wasn’t just an exhibition, it was a celebration of what young minds can achieve when given the right tools, encouragement, and space to explore.

Events like these reaffirm the importance of integrating robotics and hands-on STEM education in schools. At OLE Nepal, we are proud to support such initiatives that not only build technical skills but also foster teamwork, critical thinking, and confidence among students.
