On Saturday, December 13, HNMCS Robotics hosted our 4th annual FIRST LEGO League tournament, welcoming 21 teams from across Mississauga for the new UNEARTHED season. Throughout the day, teams had the opportunity to compete, collaborate, and demonstrate gracious professionalism while exemplifying the core values of FIRST AGE.
Teams competed with enthusiasm and creativity, adjusting LEGO heads and positions to flip market stalls and complete missions—making their mark on the STEM world one LEGO at a time. Participants worked tirelessly to complete as many missions as possible, supported by dedicated coaches and mentors who collaborated closely with their teams and one another.
My name is Olive, and I attended the FLL tournament as a referee. It was my first time refereeing, and I officiated approximately 30 matches. I had an incredible experience—the students were kind, encouraging, and uplifting toward one another. It was amazing to see everything come together so smoothly this year.
My name is Sofia, and I attended the FLL tournament as a volunteer. My role involved resetting the pits and organizing and guiding teams as they moved through the competition. It was wonderful to watch the teams compete; they were passionate, respectful, and a pleasure to work with.
