Robotics

Last Saturday, the Robotics team represented the College at the Regional First Lego League competition, held at Carmichael College, Morayfield.

The event emphasises the importance of gracious professionalism and cooperation through the core values of discovery, innovation, impact, inclusion, teamwork, and fun, which our team embodied throughout the competition.

Throughout the competition, the team demonstrated their ability to think critically and creatively to generate innovative solutions to complex problems. Students exhibited their engineering skills by designing and programming a Lego Spike Prime robot, to autonomously complete a set of missions on the FLL board within a designated time limit. In addition, they prepared and presented an innovative idea to a panel of judges showing their shared passion and enthusiasm toward solving real world problems.

The team had an exceptional day, resulting in three trophies in the categories of Robot Design, Robot Performance, and overall Engineering Excellence and achieved a personal best score of 320 points in a single run on the FLL board.

These incredible accomplishments are reflective of their teamwork, resilience, and hard work to thinking critically and creatively when solving problems. As a result of their success, our Robotics team has earned a spot in the national finals, set to take place in Gladstone on the 25^th of November.

We congratulate our Robotics team for their exceptional achievements and wish them the best of luck in the upcoming national finals.
