About EduKits
EduKits exists to inspire the next generation of thinkers, dreamers, and creators.
We’re the brainchild of a Year 8 high school student (yes, you read that right). Michael Nixon was just 13 when he launched EduKits out of Wagga Wagga, a regional town in Australia. Michael’s goal for EduKits was to share his passion for technology with other children and teenagers around the world.
Since our humble beginnings, we’ve gone on to launch workshops, resources, software and kits to an expansive user base in over 100 countries around the world. EduKits continues to inspire young minds to learn important skills and contribute to the next wave of global innovation.
