Nenagh College successfully hosted its inaugural VEX Robotics Scrimmage on Tuesday, December 19th, with the valuable presence of VEX representatives from Dell who officiated the event. The college extended a warm welcome to CBS Nenagh and Castletroy College, adding to the collaborative spirit of the occasion. This event served as excellent preparation for the upcoming Mid-West Regional Event scheduled for January 23, 2024, in Limerick.

 

The VEX team expresses gratitude to Dell for generously providing the necessary equipment to facilitate the event. Additionally, heartfelt thanks are extended to CBS Nenagh and Castletroy College for their active involvement. The collaborative efforts showcased during the scrimmage not only underscore a commitment to excellence in education but also strengthen the bonds within the educational and robotics communities.

 

Wishing the Nenagh College VEX team continued success in their pursuits and may the Mid-West Regional Event be a triumph for all involved. #community #excellenceineducation #robotics #STEM
