Dubai: The First Lego League (FLL) challenge entitled 'Climate Connections' is due to start on February 27. The pre-trials will be held at 6.30pm in Mall of the Emirates.

The global robotics programme is designed to spur on enthusiasm for discovery, science and technology as well as encourage children's creative skills, for children aged nine to 16.

Every year, FLL works with experts in the field to create a challenge that relates to a significant real-world issue. The 2009 Challenge is 'Climate Connections', a challenge that requires research to complete the project which is a science and engineering one designed for children to master the complex missions of The Robot Game.

The Falcon Steam Team will be introducing their smart robot 'Steel' at the challenge.
