First LEGO League Junior Expo at LEGO HQ!

Our team of enthusiastic year 4 pupils visited the LEGO Corporate Headquarters this week to take part in the First LEGO League Junior Expo “Mission Moon”. For the last few months they have been designing and building a moon base using LEGO WeDo 2.0; exploring, creating and testing and then sharing their ideas. Their moon base included a gym, a science lab, a store room, a rocket delivering supplies, an ice smasher, an ice transporter and a moon buggy. They had to research a great deal of information about the Moon, before deciding on their final design and work as a team to make all the elements. Then it was off to LEGO HQ (which was very exciting indeed!) to show our work. We got to tour the building, play with LEGO and meet LEGO engineers. It was fantastic! There was LEGO at every turn. The team did brilliantly and won medals in the Innovation and Construction category. Well done everyone!
