Congratulations to our Vex Coding Team who won the Regional Finals including the Excellence Award for their STEM Research. Our Lady and St Joseph’s is only the second ever UK primary school to have qualified for these world championships. At the regional competition the “Wacky Wobots” team impressed the judges with their teamwork, research, design, driving and programming skills. Their STEM research project was to investigate how robots are already being used to treat diabetes and how they could be developed in the future. The team was awarded the ‘Excellence Award’ which gave them a ‘golden’ ticket for the World Finals in Louisville, Kentucky USA. The school is looking for sponsorship to send the six children and a parent to accompany each of them to Kentucky.
