Community Connected Experiential Learning (CCEL) Grant
Community-Connected Experiential Learning (CCEL) builds on research that indicates that students are more engaged, more motivated to learn, and more successful when they can connect what they are learning to situations they care about in their community and in the world. Research has also found that experiential learning that takes place in the community contributes to the development of Global competencies by “giving opportunities for authentic learning, engaging students actively, fostering co-operation and collaboration, meeting individual interests, empowering learners and extending horizons beyond comfort zones”
The 8th TDSB CETA Robotics Exhibition Game
The 8th TDSB CETA Robotics Exhibition Game
This year, the CETA Robotics competition will be held in York Mill C.I. Double Gym on Thursday, May 8, 2025. Students will be competing in three different events. Please register before Friday, April 25, 2025. Please submit the media consent form for each participating student when you register.
The 7th TDSB CETA Robotics Exhibition Game
The highly anticipated CETA Robotics event of this year unfolded in person at SATEC on Thursday, May 9, 2024, fostering an atmosphere of excitement and innovation. A total of 96 talented students from ten TDSB schools and one private virtual school, formed 30 teams, engaging in three distinct events that challenged their robotics. Throughout the day-long spectacle, our judges, Dennis Cecic and Raj Nachimuthu, lent their expertise to oversee every round, ensuring a fair and exhilarating competition. Under Dennis' guidance, students collaborated closely with their teammates at their respective schools, investing countless hours in learning, building, and testing their robots in anticipation of the grand showdown. With impressive precision, all robots deftly traced the line and raced to the finish, while some even overcame the intricate IoT and collision detection challenges. The seamless execution of the event was made possible by the invaluable contribution of SATEC's volunteering students and teachers. Additionally, heartfelt appreciation is extended to CCEL for their generous funding, which enabled schools to acquire robots, access essential lessons, and secure necessary supplies. As a testament to their accomplishments, each successful student will proudly don a coveted CETA Robotics T-shirt, while every school will be awarded a plaque in recognition of their outstanding achievements. The overall winner school will keep the Championship cup for one year to display at their school.
Here are the results of the Game:

The 6th TDSB CETA Robotics Exhibition Game
The 6th TDSB CETA Robotics Exhibition Game
This year, the CETA Robotics competition was held in person at SATEC on Thursday, May 11. There were nine TDSB schools, with 24 teams consisting of a total of 76 students, competing in three different events. We express our gratitude to our judge, Dennis Cecic, who diligently judged every single round, which took an entire day to complete. With Dennis' support, every student spent time with their teachers at their home school, learning, building, and testing their robots weekly in preparation for the game day. All the robots were able to trace the line and compete in the race. Some were even successful in completing the IoT and/or collision detection challenge. We extend our appreciation to the volunteering students and teachers from SATEC who helped run this event smoothly. Additionally, we thank CCEL for providing funding to each school to cover the costs of robots, lessons, and supplies, making this event possible. Every successful student will receive a CETA Robotics T-shirt, and each school will be awarded a plaque for their achievements.

I would like to say a big thank you to all the schools, students and teachers who participated in this year’s CETA robotic challenge. It was a great success and everybody was having a great time. I would also like to congratulate the following schools and students that had successfully built the Robot and send them in for the game day. Without the help of students at SATEC this competition will not be running so smoothly. Big hands of applause to all.
