Year 10 students from St Colman’s took part in a Robotics Road show organised by Sentinus this week.
They programmed robots to run and make appropriate turns on a race track using lap tops and appropriate software under the skill and guidance of the road show instructor, James Conner from Sentinus.
The pupils were thoroughly engaged in the task and developed skills such as problem solving and working with others all in line with the revised curriculum.
Year 13 students also developed their leadership skills by acting as mentors for the event. St Colman’s is delighted to be working with Sentinus to give the students opportunities for skills based learning outside of the normal classroom. Events like this happen in order to build on the important work going on in the college - a specialist school for science
