Coding Club
This introduction to coding is the ideal way to equip your child with brand new coding and computer skills, and develop positive computing habits.
We start children on their coding journey with the block-based language Scratch. This allows children to learn key coding concepts without being distracted by tricky typing.
Using our award-winning curriculum, focusing on creativity and practical coding applications, we will lead the class through a series of tutorials, looking at key parts of block-based coding to create animations, games, and more. Children will come away having learnt something new, having created something unique, and having had fun!
Digital Skills Club
In this interactive club, students will get hands-on with Micro:Bit pocket-sized computers and learn how to use them as part of robotics projects.
Students will build and programme their very own robots to participate in games and competition. They will learn how to use key engineering tools like ultrasonic sensors, light sensors and servo motors to enhance their robots, and Bluetooth to communicate between robots.
Mini Coders Club
Designed specifically for our youngest students with no previous technological experience, our Mini Coders course starts with basic ICT skills and computing concepts to introduce children to the exciting world of coding. Our specially designed activities allow your child to develop their programming skills using Scratch JR, an introductory programming language that enables young children to create their own stories, animations and games. An emphasis is placed on freedom of expression, as our project-based learning encourages children to freely express their creativity as they write and modify code!
