Today the eight students who will be representing us in the upcoming Epro8 Challenge event began their preparation.
Epro8 is designed so that teams can enter 'cold' - the electronics and construction systems used are exclusive to the competition which ensure an even playing field. We began with basic circuit construction today, using our 'Brainbox Electronics' kits and explored fan making, radio circuits, lighting bulbs with different kinds of switches - and the inevitable problem solving when something isn't quite connecting correctly.
For challenges from previous competitions and to give you an idea of the scale the students will be working on, check out the website at www.epro8challenge.co.nz

Great work everyone!
