FIRST® Lego League Senior School

3… 2… 1… LEGO!

On Wednesday 25 January, eleven students from Years 7 - 10 spent the day at Hewlett Packard in Bristol. Months of designing, building, programming and tinkering with an autonomous robot came to a crescendo of music, lights and action. Alongside the robot game, the team were judged on their innovation project presentation, their gracious professionalism and their robot design.

The Queen ’ s team – Team EmVee - was one of 23 from across the region. The team worked really hard and following a couple of great heats flipping a hybrid car, switching on a TV and powering a dinosaur toy factory, Queen ’ s made it through to the robot game final. Unfortunately the Queen ’ s team were pipped to first place by an amazing home - schooled team from Wiltshire. Second place in the robot game was unfortunately not enough to secure a place in the national final, however, Mr Higgs and Mr Williams are super proud of how well the team did and to come away with a trophy in our first year of entering is amazing. The robotics co - curricular club was run by Mr Williams, Science and Mr Higgs, DT. To access the higher points, the team need to discuss their project ideas with industry experts and learn from their feedback. If you would be interested in getting involved, this could be a half hour Zoom call or popping in to the club for up to an hour, please contact beh@queenscollege.org.uk.
