The robotics team from the Mr. and Mrs. Lester Sutker AMIT Modi’in School for Boys came in second place in the FIRST LEGO League (FLL) international competition held in Estonia.
The team, known as the Kipa Bots, consists of 7th- and 8th-grade students who are mentored by juniors and seniors from the school. Competing against students from more than 100 countries around the world, they won the mechanical planning category of the competition, one of the significant parts of the contest.
This win builds on the Modi’in boys’ team’s prior successes at three international robotics competitions in recent years, including winning first place two years ago in South Africa.
