Congratulations to our grand finalists who competed last weekend. It was a great day with a very high standard of work.
The winners were "2026 Molton Ice" for the second year in a row.
"CCGS Quokkas" were a very close second and "Scotch College Team Bravo" came third.
The last 10 minutes were quite exciting as the score board rapidly changed as the last submissions were made.
Full results here.
