Drone Programs
Our Drone Programs give girls hands-on experience with this exciting technology, from Drone Academy’s STEM-focused sessions to Drone Show Design and Performance, where girls create their own drone show. Girls can also try Drone Soccer, led by ICC STEM educators, or take their skills further in Drone Soccer Competition Team Training.
Esports
Esports is the fastest growing sport globally, and this co-curricular activity gives our girls the chance to explore their passion while building collaboration, creativity, problem solving and teamwork.
Maths Club
Maths Club invites girls who enjoy extending their thinking and exploring mathematical ideas beyond the syllabus, following the Australian Maths Trust Enrichment Course to develop problem-solving skills and experience the creativity of mathematics in greater depth.
STEM Programs
Coding
Our coding pathway advances girls’ programming skills in a fun, creative way, progressing through Code to Design (Introduction to Java and Python) and introducing Unity 3D, the platform used in professional virtual reality, animation and game design.
Robotics
Gives girls the opportunity to become active problem solvers, developing 21st century STEM skills through tinkering with robots and bringing their own ideas to life.
EV Racing / Greenpower F24
Year 7: Through the Greenpower F24 program, Year 7 girls design, build and race their own electric single-seat racing car, developing real engineering skills alongside creativity, teamwork and problem solving. Girls also learn about the business of motorsport, including sponsorship and fundraising.

Frequently asked questions
What STEM and Robotics programs are available in the Secondary School?
Girls can take part in Drone Programs, Esports, Coding, Robotics, EV Racing (Greenpower F24), and Maths Club. These programs give hands-on experience with real technology, from piloting drones and building robots to designing a virtual reality environment or engineering an electric race car.
Does my daughter need coding experience to get involved?
No. Our coding pathway is designed to build progressively, advancing girls’ programming skills through Code to Design (an introduction to Java and Python) and into Unity 3D, the platform used professionally for virtual reality, animation and game design. Girls join at the level that suits them.
What does the Coding program lead to?
Code to Design introduces Java and Python before moving into Unity 3D, giving girls real exposure to the tools used in professional game design, animation and virtual reality. This is a strong foundation for girls considering further study or careers in software and design.
What's involved in the Drone Programs?
There’s a range of entry points: Drone Academy offers STEM-focused sessions, Drone Show Design and Performance lets girls create their own drone show, and Drone Soccer — led by ICC STEM educators — has both a come-and-try session and a Competition Team Training pathway for girls who want to progress further.
What is EV Racing / Greenpower F24?
Through the Greenpower F24 program, Year 7 girls design, build and race their own electric single-seat racing car, developing real engineering skills alongside creativity, teamwork and problem solving. Girls also learn about the business side of motorsport, including sponsorship and fundraising.
Is there a program for girls who love robotics?
Yes. Our extensive Robotics program gives girls the chance to become active problem solvers, tinkering with robots and bringing their own ideas to life, while developing 21st-century STEM skills.
What is Maths Club?
New in 2026, Maths Club is for girls who enjoy extending their mathematical thinking beyond the syllabus. It follows the Australian Maths Trust Enrichment Course, developing problem-solving skills and giving girls a chance to experience the creativity of mathematics in greater depth.
Is Esports treated as a genuine co-curricular activity?
Yes. Esports is one of the fastest-growing activities globally and, at Pymble, it’s a co-curricular activity in its own right, letting girls explore their passion for gaming while building collaboration, creativity, problem solving and teamwork.
What does a program cost?
Costs vary by program, particularly where specialist equipment (such as drones or the Greenpower F24 car) or external competition entry is involved.
