Mr JORDAN LANE (Ryde) (23:13): I am delighted to announce that for the second consecutive year the brilliant young minds from Creator Academy Eastwood have secured a place representing Australia at the 2024 VEX Robotics World Championship in Dallas, Texas, this April. Under Head Coach Garry Law, these students have demonstrated exceptional skills in designing, building and coding robots. I extend my warmest congratulations to Justin Wang, Yixuan Chen, Mina Zhang, Clare Wei, Ashleigh Xu, Alfred Li, Marcus Pan, Albert Xiong, Mia Chen, Ethan Zhang, Eric Yang, Sophie Pan and Emily Tse for their remarkable achievements.
As they embark on this exciting journey to represent Australia globally, I ask the House to join me in wishing them well. I eagerly anticipate hearing about their successes and encourage others to check out the Creator Academy Robotics Center at Eastwood to witness firsthand a local generation of high achievers at work. Congratulations, again, to our incredible Eastwood robotics students. May their futures be filled with continued success and innovation. I know they will make us very proud.
