From July 17th to 20th, the students from Centro Educativo João Paulo II visited the RoboCup 2025, the world largest event of international robotics and artificial intelligence. Held at the Centro de Convenções de Salvador, the gathering brought together, over four days, students, researchers and professionals in the field, in an environment filled with challenges, competitions and technological innovations.

During the visit the students had the opportunity to see up close robots developed by teams from around the world, discover new possibilities for the use of robotics in everyday life, and be amazed by the countless ways to learn in a practical manner. The children also closely followed the robots’ competitions, cheering at each match and observing the real-life application of technological concepts. 

The experience sparked in the students great curiosity about technology, stimulated creativity and encouraged the pursuit of innovation. The event offered not only competitions, but also a rich exchange of knowledge through lectures, workshops, and exhibitions. For the students, it became clear that subjects covered in the classroom, such as logic, mathematics and physics, are essential building blocks for turning ideas into functional machines.

Behind the scenes, it drew special attention the care taken with every detail—from organizing cables to last-minute tests—showing that success in technology requires method, persistence, and teamwork.

The participation of the students in events like this is essential for broadening horizons, developing critical thinking and reinforcing the certainty that knowledge can transform realities. For Centro Educativo João Paulo II, the visit marked a milestone in the students’ academic journey, making a significant contribution to each one’s learning experience.
