Day 2 Evening Update CEESA Robotics

Students had a great day competing in various facets of the robotics tournament.  One team came in second overall, out of twenty teams, for robot games.  Another team got the award for best mechanical design for their claw attachment. It was dubbed "The claw to rule them all".

In the afternoon, students headed into town for the the cultural component of the event, visiting the national museum as well as other historical parts of town.

Students are spending some of the evening at school, playing various sports and then will head off to their host families for their final night in Tirana. We leave tomorrow after possibly doing some shopping in the morning and hope to be in Budapest by about 6 PM.

Morning Update Day 2

Students arrived early this morning for another day of robotics having enjoyed time with their host families and new friends.

It's been a busy morning of head-to-head competition. Our teams have been getting solid scores and have advanced a couple of rounds. Unfortunately, one team has just been eliminated after a valiant effort,  while another of our teams is still in the competition round.

Here are some images from this morning...

Afternoon Update Day 1 CEESA Robotics

Students are wrapping up the day with one round left for each team. Scores have been consistently high but a little luck would help us break away from the pack.

After a hearty lunch students ran around outside and played soccer with students from other schools.

We were lucky enough to get to visit a class of 5 year olds and teach them a little about robotics.

Students will be heading off at 5:00 to enjoy some time with their host families.

Hopefully, you've had a chance to watch some of the action today on the livestream.

Stay tuned for more...
