This past weekend Clarenville was well represented at the annual MATE underwater robotics challenege held at Memorial University's Marine Institute. Clarenville's Riverside Elementary displayed a Micro-ROV, Clarenville Middle School competed in an ROV challenge, and Clarenville High School vied for a third year as provincial champions.
A lot of kids were involved in these projects and their collective success and the application of engineering and design principles was a testament to the skill and dedication of their teachers.
We have a solid base of future talent in this field!

I hope that those young people will become an asset to our country however we can never know who will. It proves the fact that all children need a profound education which not only give knowledge as information but also brings up thinking and independent people. In our Digital Age students have an access to many things which seemed impossible for their parents, they even easily get Help On Essay online and get nearly all possible information. However their minds are not mature enough to make their own decisions and conclusions. I think that these little explorers have excellent teachers and parents who spend to bring up creative and at the same time happy children.
