King Edward VI Grammar School's Young Engineers Club bagged our £200 STEM Club Award at the 2015 Schools' Competition. Following an application to our STEM Club Bursary in 2016, we were very pleased to award them £100 to help them enter two teams into the 2016 VEX Robotics championships.
The funds awarded contributed towards the cost of parts for the robots and the registration fees for the second team.
We were delighted to award a £100 STEM Club Bursary to Tendring Technology College in 2014 to enable them to build a sumo wrestling robot.
The funding was used by the Tendring STEM Club to purchase parts. We awarded a further £70 in 2015 to make upgrades to the robot.
Several of Tendring's robots won prizes at the 2015 Schools' Competition.
