Our team Kondortech finished in third place at the Peruvian First Lego League National Championship on November 2008 in the FDR Secondary gym.

Our team; Mariano de Osma, Maria Jose Eyzaguirre, Melissa Vidal, Nicolas Heeren, Kevin Fu and their coaches Ms Gaby Eyzaguirre and Yago de Aubeyzo nobtained the award to Best Robotic Design and the Best Score on the Court

Late March we learned that our team was going to get the opportunity to represent Peru in the FLL OPEN CHAMPIONSHIP PLUS MORE to be held from the 1 to the 3 of May 2009 in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Since some of our original team members where unable to travel we have included new members on the team, 3 middle school students; Caroline, Juan Diego and Juan Fernando joined the team to make a new and improved Kondortech.

The First Lego League is an international program for children ages 9-16 that combines a hands-on, interactive robotics program with a sports-like atmosphere. Teams consist of up to 10 players with the focus on such things as team building, problem solving, creativity, and analytical thinking through building and programming robots to complete tasks. The 2008 task was the Climate Connections

We are very excited about having had the opportunity to participate in this amazing event where more than 50 teams from around the world including our team have been invited. The tournament will take place at the Bella Center in Copenhagen.

In the last 4 weeks before the event we have made changes to our strategy and have improved the performance of our robot. We will going to continue working after school on our robot and our presentation in the days we have before the competition. We want to make sure to be prepared for this important event.
