FIRST® LEGO® League Challenge is a global STEM programme for teams of young people aged 9 - 16 years old, to encourage an interest in real-world themes and develop key skills that are crucial for their future careers.
Young people work together to explore a given topic and to design, build and program an autonomous LEGO® robot to solve a series of missions.
You can find resources for our North Tyneside and Northumberland tournaments below.
