All jazzed up for a rocking time

 Now, this is what I really like about the place Hey, with this guy around me, I don't have to worry about the Dark Side
And the winners!
The top teams at the NJRC 2000 were P14 (Bedok View Primary School) in the Primary School category and S22 (CHIJ Toa Payoh School) in the Secondary School category. They will be representing Singapore at the 1st International Robot Olympiad to be held from 11-13 November 2000 in S. Korea. Hope they come back with a medal or two!
