...busy doing a robot for the Tug War...


...take a break for a while...


...this is our robot...

After several competition in the class, my theme has won. We have won for 2 competition. Our group has made to the final round. Because of the group that join the competition just six group, our class only can manage a simple league that is Group A, 3 round and Group B, 3 round.

...while the competition...

The winner for each group will meet the final. My group is the winner for Group B. My group will meet the winner in Group A. In the final, I have design a robot that can stand to win the tournament. I have modified the robots to test the theory of using small tires behind. But unfortunately, the theory is fail.

...yeah!! we got the second place overall...

But after the tournament, our class have learn a lot. We have learn the basis of physics, maths, science,ICT usage and others. The tournament is very useful for us to apply the theory that we have learned before in secondary schools. Although, we have lose the tournament but we learn from our mistakes.
