Everything needed to start, in one box: the micro:bit Smart Home Kit, a micro:bit V2 board, and eleven self-paced lessons in the Sammat Online Academy. Children wire up a sensor, write a few blocks of code, and a light comes on or a window opens — one of the clearest ways to show what a program actually does in the physical world. What's included: 1 x micro:bit Smart Home Kit 1 x micro:bit GO pack (V2) — board, battery pack with 2 x AAA batteries and a USB cable 11 self-paced lessons in the Sammat Online Academy, with build steps, code and video walkthroughs Kit contains a sensor:bit board, OLED screen, rainbow LED, relay, DC motor, 180° servo, submersible pump, temperature, sound, light, crash and soil moisture sensors, screwdriver, USB cable, AAA battery box and printed manual The lessons cover: Voice-activated lights, a smart fan and automatic windows A water level alarm, a decibel tester and an intruder detection system Reading a sensor value and using it to trigger an output Block coding in Microsoft MakeCode, from first program to independent project You will need a computer, phone or tablet with internet access to load the Microsoft MakeCode editor. Written in Australia for Australian classrooms and homes, and worked through at your own pace — there is no timetable and no expiry on a lesson you have not finished.

The micro:bit Smart Home Kit turns coding into something students can see working. They wire up a sensor, write a few blocks of code, and a light comes on or a window opens. It is one of the clearest ways to show upper primary and lower secondary students what a program actually does in the physical world. What's included: sensor:bit expansion board with GVS terminals and an I2C port OLED screen, rainbow LED, relay, DC motor and 180° servo Temperature, sound, light, crash and soil moisture sensors Submersible pump, screwdriver, USB cable, AAA battery box and printed manual micro:bit board and batteries are not included — add a micro:bit V2 at checkout What students practise: Reading a sensor value and using it to trigger an output Block coding in Microsoft MakeCode, with a path into Python later Connecting circuits safely and debugging when something doesn't respond Talking about automation in terms they can point at, not abstractions Sammat's Online Academy carries eleven self-paced lessons for this kit — build steps, code and video walkthroughs, written for Australian classrooms. Academy access is sold as an add-on to the kit, and is included in the Smart Home Kit Classroom Pack.
