Our 2019 FIRST LEGO League Competition Team

Our team is made up from robotics enthusiasts predominantly from Wakatipu High School. All of our work happens after school where we meet at least twice a week. We pretty much work all year round on FIRST LEGO League and FIRST Tech Challenge.

We are also looking at training a new line up of competitors for RoboCup Rescue. If you are interested in joining the team please get in touch.
