No prior coding experience necessary. If your child has been to one of these workshops before, then their learning will be extended further and they will not have to repeat the same content as before. Wraparound care available upon request. Please get in touch via email or phone.

Important COVID-19 related information: We will take every precaution necessary to protect our staff, our course attendees and their families. We will strictly follow government advice at the time of running the camp. This may include, among other precautions, a temperature measurement of students at the time of morning registration. More information about our risk assessment and mitigation procedures will be provided via an email closer to the time.

Event Details

Minecraft Coding

This course is designed for primary aged students who are looking to learn to code the games that they play every day. Minecraft makes coding fun yet meaningful as players learn and understand coding concepts that they bring to life in the game!

The participant can use a drag & drop interface which is highly intuitive, but the blocks also show the actual java code too. Coding concepts like variables, if/then/else statements and constructors will be learnt. More advanced participants can switch any time from block-based drag-and-drop code to Javascript.

The children can play with their creations and show their friends at the end of the session on a secure server that only the course participants on the day will have access to:
Code in Minecraft using a Java editor
Increase complexity with Conditions and Variables
Learn about Boolean and Loops
Test and debug using logic and systematic reasoning
Connect your world and Play in Minecraft

Lego Robotics

Children use the Lego WeDo 2.0 and Lego Mindstorms EV3 to design robots to solve real world problems. They learn to code their robots in interactive challenges. In addition to the basics of robotics, children learn key engineering principles such as force and motion, gear ratios and aerodynamics.

  • Solve a real world ‘big problem’ such as pollution, animal welfare, dinosaur habitats
  • Apply engineering concepts such as gear ratios, aerodynamics, motions
  • Explore visual programming with the WeDo 2.0 and EV3 software
  • Build robots that use motors
  • Program and utilize different sensors
  • Develop structural design skills

Game Development

Make games rather than play them using your own ideas! Become game developers for a day using a physical and virtual platform for creating video games in the classroom. When students build games, they become the writers, artists, designers, and developers of their own interactive stories.

It all starts with an idea. We provide resources that encourage collaboration while guiding students through a design thinking process. Students create their own 13-bit layouts, characters, and art for their game.

  • turn your physical creations into digital game elements
  • edit and customize everything from characters to settings
  • develop interactions and behaviour between characters
  • tell rich, dynamic narratives through your games
  • publish them so others can play them too

AR/VR Coding

Content creation and coding for a highly interactive virtual reality 3-D world. Learn to build interactions with block-based coding or advanced scripting.

Our students use computer aided design (CAD) to create their 3-D worlds. They then use visual block-based and intuitive programming language to code interactions between the various elements of their virtual reality world and the end user of their product.

More advanced coders can have:
fun coding scripts to add interactions through JavaScript
Use code to experiment with physics!
Create simulations of physical phenomena and visualize abstract scientific concepts in 3D or in VR.
