Week 12:Highlights

2. VEX IQ Scrimmage Competition

On Friday 24 October, fifteen ES students represented Concordia at the event hosted by Wellington College International School, alongside teams from SAS Puxi, SAS Pudong, Hangzhou International School (HIS), Dulwich College Shanghai Pudong, and YCIS Shanghai.

Our 15 students have demonstrated grit over the past two months working hard to build, test, and refine their robots. They persevered through many challenges, showing determination and problem-solving throughout the season and they continue to do so.

We are proud to share that Concordia came home with four awards:

  1. Youngest and Most Impressive Team (Carreon, Maci G4; Gandhi, Amelia G4; Carreon, Marisa G5)– This team demonstrated integrity, staying true to the spirit of the competition by supporting one another, learning from mistakes, and celebrating the success of others.

  2. Sportsmanship Award (Wu, Sean G5 and other 2 MS students - former ES students) – demonstrated respect through their positive attitude, encouragement of other teams, and willingness to help their peers.

  3. Two teams earned 1st Place for Skills and Highest Scores (Wang, Maxwell G5, alongside other 6th and 7th graders - also former ES students) These teams demonstrated unity, collaborating closely, sharing ideas, and problem-solving with their alliances to achieve success.

The students were thrilled with their achievements and are now preparing for their next challenge—the VEX IQ Scrimmage in Hangzhou on November 22.
