Nelspruit trial competition

Dear All,

the robot runs! The first two out of three consolidated mission programs start to mature. The robot collects items from the field and posts them to the allocated places and brings items from the base to the house or ice. Thanks David, Jandre, Jan and Dominique!

In research Gareth and his friend had another expert session with Mr. Wolfgang Paulig, chemical engineer, who adviced them on the chemical reactions and possibilities to take the carbon elements out of the air and smog and re-use it for: food chemicals, cold drinks and as products to provide to ESCOM to produce more energy based on our inventions from the previous week.

Jan has finalized the team logo which was well accepted by the team members.

We have 2 weeks to go! Therefore, practice will be on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday afternoon.

We will visit our Nelspruit partner team SAP JINX-JINX next weekend! The SAP ZAP-IT (our homeschooling team) will join us. Please ask your parents if they allow you to go!
