The “Aqua Ducks” competed in the Spring Showdown at Legoland, CA
on Sunday, April 29th.
FIRST LEGO League is an exciting, team-based robotics competition in which students design, build,
and program robots to solve a variety of challenges. This year’s theme was WATER!
Each team mapped out a solution to a problem and brought it to life with a spectacular robotic creation!
The Showdown also focuses on teamwork, positive discovery and sportsmanship.
