Can FIRST® LEGO® League teams help us master natural disasters? In the 2013 NATURE’S FURY℠ Challenge, over 200,000 children ages 9 to 16 from over 70 countries will explore the awe-inspiring storms, quakes, waves and more that we call natural disasters. Teams will discover what can be done when intense natural events meet the places people live, work, and play. Brace yourself for NATURE’S FURY!

FLL challenges kids to think like scientists and engineers. During NATURE’S FURY teams will build, test, and programme an autonomous robot using LEGO MINDSTORMS® to solve a set of missions in the Robot Game. They will also choose and solve a real­ world problem in the Project. Throughout their experience, teams will operate under FLL’s signature set of Core Values.

The CTSC will host the regional FIRST LEGO League robotics tournament on Saturday 2 November 2013.

Pop in and cheer on your favourite team – entry fee R5 for the day (please note that the CTSC will not be fully operational due to the tournament and only limited exhibits will be accessible).
