EPRO 8

John Waller —

On Thursday 17th of August two teams of budding engineers headed to Blockhouse Bay Intermediate school to take part in the interschool EPRO8 challenge.

All the students who went along had a great time and wanted to share some of the highlights with you:

It was a very tight game and it was really interesting using electricity and connecting the metal poles. Elliot

I enjoyed the experience using wires and constructing lightening rods, even though it was challenging I enjoyed our team collaboration. Matthew

It was a great time because we all got to work together. Jessica

It was a really good experience for us especially when we got to work together. We had buzzers that made songs when we pushed them. Zoe

Even when you’re last you can still go up the rankings if you try hard enough. Andre

It was really fun to collaborate with my team. It was quite quiet because everyone was so focused. Alyssa

We got to try new technology stuff and it was really challenging. It was fun. Samuel

A massive thank you to the parents who helped transport us to and from the event.
