C14 robotics team return to help out at the FLL nationals in Loughborough

C14 Robotics team were invited by the Institute of Engineering and Technology (IET) to return to the First Lego League UK & Ireland finals as volunteers. In return last year's champions had a free hotel stay in a 4* hotel, a  lovely evening meal and free lunch (yes there is such a thing). It was fab to see them back as a team (albeit, minus a few members) and the boys had a lovely day. 

A few of us parents manned a stall, to answer questions about the robot, the team, their trips to America and Spain and all things FLL. We were busy all day! Congratulations to the West Linton team who are the new FLL Uk & Ireland champions!

The team met Dalton Brobots in Spain at the European Open, and again at the FLL nationals in 2015 and have stayed in touch. Berrelium 6 didn't get any awards at the weekend, despite all their hard work, but they remained cheery and it was wonderful to see them again. Perhaps next year?


C14, being 'busy'.
