On Wednesday 6 November I had the pleasure of visiting Trinity College in Colac in my electorate to congratulate the school's robotics team on qualifying for the 2014 robotics world championships in Moscow. Two Trinity College teams will join teams from Germany, Malaysia, America, China, Saudi Arabia and many more at the world championships in November next year.

It is a tremendous honour to represent this great country on the world stage, and the students should be very proud of their achievements. I also want to congratulate the Trinity students for placing eighth at the 2013 robotics world championships in Jakarta last week. They lost to a Russian team, which went on to place second overall. The dedicated robotics coach, John Sturm, and the students are a credit to their school, to their community and to Australia and they are an inspiration to others around them. This is a great celebration of achievement in science, research and science teaching.
