Navigating learning obstacles can be a source of immense frustration for students, often resulting in heightened levels of stress and anger among young individuals. Recognizing the significance of this challenge, our innovative team conceived a groundbreaking idea: developing a robot designed to help users channel their frustration into constructive physical activities post-school hours. Equipped with miniature punching bags, this robotic companion emerges as the ideal sparring partner for an invigorating boxing session.

To get started on an achievable project, the team strategically devised a plan to introduce boxing classes during Term 2, aiming to alleviate stress and enhance mental and physical wellbeing. Taking a proactive approach, the team intends to engage with their Physical Health teacher for support in coordination, while also crafting visually appealing posters to be displayed throughout the school. These posters will serve as informative guides, detailing how students can express their interest and register to participate in the transformative boxing classes.
