On Monday we held out first Lego League club meeting! First Lego League is a global science and technology competition with over 250,000 young people taking part each year. Only six students in Year 9 have been selected to take part, as this is a unique and exciting opportunity we have chosen only students who have demonstrated a love of learning and the desire to develop their skills in Computer programming. During the meetings students work as a team to program a robot to complete various challenges using Lego. On Friday 13th January, students will visit the Langdale Centre where they will compete with their robot against other schools in the area, they will also be interviewed by panels of judges on their approach to the Lego Core Values (for more information visit www.firstlegoleague.org/about-fll) and on the design of their robot.
