Robots wage battle for NZ Youth Week
Innovators young and old are invited to unleash their creativity and technical skills to create combat robotics in support of NZ Youth Week.
NZ Youth week runs from May 20 to 26 – the theme this year is “we may not have it all together, but together we have it all”.
Council’s Community Partnerships Advisor Jodie Griffiths said Youth Week was a nationwide festival of events organised by young New Zealanders to celebrate the talents, passion, and success of local young people.
“Youth Week events encourage young people to take on challenges, share ideas and focus on the positive aspects of being young and to recognise the youth workers, youth service providers and others working with and for young people. Marlborough Youth Council are excited to support Myspace in hosting Combat Robotics – this is an amazing event for youth who enjoy technology,” she said.
There are only 40 spots available for each event, beginning with a corporate event on Friday night and two separate competitions for Under 16s and Over 16s on Saturday 25 May. For more information email events@myt.org,nz
