FIRST LEGO League Challenge- Unearthed

The ground trembles beneath your feet. With magnifying glass, rope, and pickaxe in hand, your expedition begins! In FIRST LEGO League UNEARTHED, you and your team will unearth treasures long forgotten, uncover artifacts steeped in mystery, and bring hidden stories back to light. Yet discovery is only the first step—your true mission lies ahead.

What truth hides within symbols etched in stone? What tools unlock the secrets of the past? And how will your vision carve the path to tomorrow?

What you need to know

What?

The past whispers….are you ready to listen?
Symbols carved in stone. Secrets buried in time. This season we will uncover the secrets of the past, and your discoveries could change how we see the future!
During the sessions children will experience the four areas:
Robot Design: Children will design and build an autonomous robot that will navigate the game table and complete as many missions as possible.
Robot Game: Children will try to complete as many missions as possible in two and a half minutes to score as many points as possible.
Innovation Project: Children will explore a real world problem connected with archeology. They will research an area of interest and come up with a solution, supported by industry experts and present this project in an innovative way on competition day.
Core Values: Throughout the sessions and on competition day children will be working towards the core values of Disovery, Innovation, Impact, Inclusion, Teamwork, Fun
