A huge thank you to the team in Vantive Health Castlebar for inviting our VEX team to their site, guiding us on an inspiring tour and making a generous donation toward our trip to the World Championships.
We were truly amazed by the work happening there, and the passion and insight shared by the team of engineers left a lasting impression on our young innovators. We loved viewing all the different robots at work, programmed to make life saving equipment to be delivered all around the world!
We can already see many of our young students aspiring to follow in the engineering footsteps in the years to come!
