We’re thrilled to announce our robotics teams’ outstanding performance at the ACT VEX Robotics State Finals in Canberra! Competing against 27 teams, our students placed 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 8th, with Cohen, Cailyn, and Georgia achieving an impressive 51 points in the grand final.
In addition to these top placements, our teams received multiple awards for their achievements:
Sportsmanship Award
Teamwork Champions
Innovation Award
Robot Skills Champion
Excellence Award
Thanks to a generous $10,000 grant from Snowy Hydro’s Local School STEM Fund, we were able to purchase eight new VEX IQ robots and a regulation tournament field, enhancing our Robotics and STEAM programs and providing students with the tools to compete at higher levels. This support has been essential in establishing us as a regional hub for VEX robotics. We’re also proud to announce that our Junior Team (Years 5-6) will represent us at the National Tournament in Sydney this December—an incredible achievement for their first year competing!
Thank you to Snowy Hydro and our dedicated staff for supporting our students’ success and preparing them for national competition. We look forward to seeing our robotics program continue to grow and inspire the next generation of young innovators.
