Our Goals

The primary goal of VPCI Robotics is the extension of STEM into the community, and helping students understand the importance of STEM. Beyond that, we hope to propagate the values of FIRST & VPCI Robotics into the community, provide a comfortable environment for students to learn about STEM, and create strong bonds, both within our team members, and within the community.

Our History

Starting in 2014, Team 4914 "Panthers" was established at Victoria Park Collegiate Institute with students from the school and several teacher mentors.
