Mumbai Academy Opens Robotics STEM Lab for Hands-On Learning
A school in Mumbai opened a new room for science and technology activities.
The room has tools for learning about robotics and solving problems.
Students can build things and test their ideas.
They can also learn about technology, money skills and practical tasks.
Working together is an important part of the activities.
The school wants students to learn from mistakes instead of being afraid of them.
Principal Rekha Anand said these skills will help students prepare for the future.
The lab is meant to make learning more practical and meaningful than studying from books alone.
