Those NEMO radios could be child’s play for a group of students who has just returned from Mexico City. Students from the Belize High School represented Belize at this year’s FIRST Global Challenge 2018.  The aim of the competition was to demonstrate how science and engineering can solve the many challenges that humanity is currently experiencing.  One of the competitors, Kent Haylock told us that the robotics competition was very interesting.

Kent Haylock, Team Leader: “My interest in robotics started when I was in standard five. During that time there was a summer camp and I was so excited to be there and from them I’ve always loved robotics. My experience at the competition was amazing because I got to meet different countries and we all had a common goal and it was to help make the world a better place. I met countries that were also very friendly and I met long time friends.”

Haylock went into depth on the intricacies of the robot he created with the Belize team.
