General Info

 

We are anticipating another amazing season here in Victoria. Due to the growth that we saw in Victoria over the last 2 years we are changing our standard event agenda to accommodate. If this event has less than 25 teams registered 1 week prior to the event the agenda will be modified.

We will have lunch for sale at the venue, but if any of your students have special dietary requirements they should bring their own lunch.

All adults attending events at Victorian Government schools must provide a working with childrens check. If adults require a working with childrens check they may apply for it for free through in2robotics. We welcome any adults at the venue to volunteer if they wish.

Registered teams will receive an email prior to the event with event details including parking and lunch information.
