The FIRST® LEGO® League (FLL) is a global STEM program that engages children aged 9 to 16 in hands-on learning through robotics and research projects. Each year, teams tackle a new challenge theme, and for the 2024-2025 season, the theme is “SUBMERGED℠,” focusing on ocean exploration and conservation.
All the teams had a fantastic day competing in the Robot challenge game, presenting their inventive and innovative research projects and displaying the core values that are fundamental to taking part. Above all fun was had by all.
Congratulations to our winners – Harton Puzzlers and St Benet’s Sea Machines who will be representing our region at the Nationals in Harrogate on 3rd May.
Good luck and Lego Godt!
