Primary 7 have been studying the impact robotics can have in our lives and the future. To build upon this, pupils had the opportunity to build and program their own robots using Lego Mindstorm EV3 kits. Groups worked very well to build their robots, following sets of instructions and persisting when problem solving with design. Groups familiarised themselves with programming their robots in class over a fortnight.

Today, two ex-pupils who now attend Barrhead High and Mr Malloy from the school’s Science department visited Cross Arthurlie to set a series of Robotics challenges. Everyone worked excellently together and  managed to tackle all 3 challenges. Some groups even made it to the bonus challenge. Barrhead High were very impressed with our efforts.
