The Alleyn's team, consisting of six Lower School pupils - Isla, Thor, Lucas, Louis, Max, and Abigail - had a challenging start, finishing the first round in 12th place out of 12 teams. They scored only a fraction of the top team's points, but despite this early setback, they remained focused and determined to improve. Competing in the First Lego League for the first time, they quickly worked to refine their robot’s attachments and code.
In the second round, their efforts began to pay off. With quick adjustments and improved execution, the team gained momentum, climbing into the middle of the leaderboard.
By the third round, they had advanced to the top four, securing a spot in the knockout stage - an unexpected achievement, as they had initially packed up, thinking their day was over! In the knockout round, their seamless communication and refined robot design led them to victory, earning them a place in the finals.
The final match was intense, with the top-scoring team from earlier rounds as their opponent. After a thrilling tie, the team narrowly finished in second place in a rematch against a St Paul’s Year 10 team. From last place to second, their incredible performance was a testament to their teamwork, perseverance, and determination.
