On the 25th of May Awarenet hosted another fun and exciting robotics competition at the Joza Youth Hub. This Competition was not a friendly one this time around it was a trial competition to choose teams that will represent their schools and Awarenet at this year’s World Robotics Olympiad S.A Provincial competition. We had a turnout of 12 high school learners as this trial competition was more for them this time.
The learners were excited and focused at the same time as neither of them wanted to lose the chance to be chosen to go to the Provincial competition. We had judges for that day and coaches with the help of our Social Employment Fund participants who also teach these learners robotics. Out of the 12 learners, we chose 9 learners that will participate in Provincial Competition. The WRO Competition will take place here in Makhanda on the 2nd of August 2024.
