The "Eaglets of Russia" program, a groundbreaking aviation and drone initiative, is making waves in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia. Launched in 2021 by the Russian Ministry of Education, this program is designed to inspire young aviators through a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) approach.
The program, now operational in all schools in Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, targets younger students (Junior level: Grades 1 to 5). It offers a unique blend of theoretical and practical lessons on aviation and drone flying, aiming to educate children about the science of flight and develop their skills through engaging, hands-on drone activities integrated seamlessly into the curriculum[1].
The "Eaglets of Russia" program encourages students to understand flight concepts and advance their technical knowledge and operational expertise with drones, fostering interest in aerospace fields from an early age. It’s part of a broader enrichment curriculum intended to engage children in various innovative and experiential learning activities, linking STEM education with practical applications in aviation and robotics[1].
The program also emphasizes the importance of civic responsibility and team values. During the recent event at School No. 6 named after Lelechuk, participants worked together on small tasks, demonstrating the spirit of collaboration that underpins the program[2].

The "Eaglets of Russia" program brings together children, teachers, parents, and older mentors, creating a supportive community that nurtures the growth of young minds[4].
Looking ahead, the tasks undertaken by the participants are expected to grow into bigger ones in the future, as the children continue to develop their skills and knowledge in aviation and drone technology[5]. The "Eaglets of Russia" program is a shining example of how STEM education can be made exciting and accessible for young learners, fostering a new generation of aviators and innovators.
