APAC Robotics Competition

December 7, 2017 Posted by Jessica Law School News, Science

Our 5 teams are in good spirits They are at the tail end of of first part of competition. There are 84 teams in their division. 120 teams are in other divisions with different types of robots or different aged students There are 9 counties represented from the Asia and Pacific regions.

Our teams are currently ranked across the competition.

2918E Hemant Toora and Adam Macintyre

2918G Joshua Green and Maia Green

2918C Chris Webb

2918H Michael Oborn

2918D Jackson Woodbury, Xander Green and Luke Oborn

This afternoon will see if our teams get picked for the quarter finals and then win through to the finals. What ever happens, they will have learnt lots and need not be ashamed of their efforts.

We have 2 of our students Matt Steyn and Michael Wornham acting as volunteers helping the event to go ahead.

All of our students can be seen helping other teams who are experiencing difficulties. Great community service.

I am incredibly proud of how our students are working together, truly a great example of what we want to see in all our students.

We have Brian and Maryann Green ably looking after the teams, keeping them on time for matches and handling all the ups and downs of the competition. They are amazing.
