FIRST LEGO LEAGUE

“To transform our culture by creating a world where science and technology are celebrated and where young people dream of becoming science and technology leaders.” 

Dean Kamen, Founder

FIRST® LEGO® League introduces science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) to children ages 4-16* through fun, exciting hands-on learning. Participants gain real-world problem solving experience through a guided, global robotics program, helping today’s students and teachers build a better future together.” In partnership with the Walpole Public Library, the Walpole Robotics Foundation and FRC 1153 founded, and ran the Walpole FLL Teams for the 2022 Season, Superpowered. In FLL, students are given both a game with challenges they must design a robot to solve, but also a question that they must develop and research an answer to. This year’s question was relating to renewable energy, where it comes from, how it moves, and how it is used.

FLLC Teams 56346 and 55822 have ~15 4th and 5th grade students and ~10 mentors from FRC 1153 and the Walpole Public Library.

Our FLL Teams are supported by the Walpole Public Library, Pizzano Engineering Consulting, Nerds to Go, the community, and our high school robotics team, FRC 1153! We thank you for helping start and run our teams!
