World robotics champs return to Sydney.

World robotics champs return to Sydney. :

"Three Australian schoolboys have returned to Sydney in triumph after winning the world championships in robotics in Japan."

I saw two programmes on these robotics championships on the Channel Asia news when I was in Vanuatu. The dedication of all the school teams is astounding and the 100% support the students get from their teachers who guide and mentor them, but do not do any of the work or thinking for them, is equally impressive. This article in no way gives an indication of what a fantastic achievement it is for these students from the Cranbrook Private School to have won the event. It takes a lot of brains, much dedication, some really sophisticated thinking, stamina and a great deal of courage to go up against some formidable opponents. The competition had a good atmosphere and the audience support was clear. It's just such an amazing opportunity but also a HUGE feather in the cap of this Sydney team. Well done, folks.
