Students from Woodford International School have been selected to represent Solomon Islands in the 2019 FIRST Global Robotics Competition in Dubai.

The FIRST Global Challenge is a truly international robotics event with more than 175 nations across the world traveling to Dubai to participate.

Participating teams are composed of students – aged 14 through 18 years – with the common goal of increasing their knowledge of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) so that they can become the next generation of scientific leaders who will work together to solve some of the world’s most pressing problems, from food security and access to clean water, to finding better medicines and securing cyberspace.

The FIRST Global Challenge invites each country to send a team to compete in the robotics olympics, which takes place in a different nation each year.
