Ernest Manning Robotics Competition

Last week, Ernest Manning Robotics made a powerful showing at the Canadian Pacific Regional Robotics Competition in Vancouver, BC! Our two teams, Manning Robotics (4627) and the Manning Mountaineers (4862), faced off against some of the world's best, and they truly rose to the challenge. We witnessed incredible moments, like the junior team holding their own against the legendary "Hawaiian Kids" in qualification round 46, and the senior team's consistently strong performance that earned them the title of top-scoring team in Western Canada! Beyond the competition, our students embodied the values of professionalism, grace, excellence, and unwavering support for their fellow competitors. What an unforgettable experience! Congratulations to both teams on their remarkable success. Go Griffins!
