We are Dutch Delta. We come from Rotterdam, the Netherlands. We are a team of 10 students, aged 12 to 15. We are at the same school, the Libanon Lyceum, but we are not in the same class. At school we have our own classroom where we get together in our sparetime . The First Lego League means a lot to us. We take pleasure in being at work on a robot and investigating problems about natural disasters. We are a close team and we are also close friends. We spend quite a lot of time together. Thanks to the First Lego League we can do something with technics at a young age.

Hans Brinker was an 8 years old boy, who lived in the city of Haarlem in the 19th century One bright and sunny day his mother told him to take some pancakes to an old blind man. On his way het noticed that the water near the dike was higher than ususal. Suddenly he saw water streaming through a hole in the dike. Quickly he stuck his finger in the hole in order to stop the water. He cried for help but nobody heard him. He could not run away. It was not till the next day that he was found. But our little hero saved the city!
We are also worried about how long we can keep our feet dry. That is why we want to help our scientists.
