Note: With King’s Birthday observed on Monday 2nd June, our program will not run that week. This has been accounted for by making this a 9-week program.

Running in line with the school term, this after-school program is designed for students aged 7–14 who are ready to unlock their creative and technical potential. Over the course of 9 weeks, students will grow their confidence in coding, digital design, and problem-solving while working on exciting projects that stretch their imagination and sharpen their skills.

Core Programming Concepts: Problem solving, debugging, decomposition, algorithms, loops, variables, conditionals, operators, and functions
Computational Thinking: Logical reasoning, pattern recognition, abstraction, and efficient problem-solving strategies
Creative & Digital Design: UI/UX design thinking, visual storytelling, digital art concepts, and interactive design
Project-Based Collaboration: Planning, building, and presenting projects in teams
Technical Literacy: Understanding how digital systems work and how to engage with them confidently

Soft skills built through the program include:

Teamwork and collaboration
Design thinking and planning
Communication and presentation
Time management and self-regulation
Agile project development
Critical thinking and adaptability

What to Bring:

A reliable laptop is required. Devices should be less than 5 years old, have a working battery, updated operating system, and be capable of running multiple browser tabs and basic development tools (e.g. Scratch, Code.org, Python IDEs, or web editors).

Please note: While Chromebooks and tablets can handle some browser-based tools like Scratch and Code.org, many models may not support all of the development tools used in the program—such as Python IDEs or installable applications. If you're planning to use a Chromebook or tablet, feel free to check with us to confirm compatibility.
Internet access via Wi-Fi at the venue will be provided.
Access to a Gmail or school email account is essential. Many of the platforms we use (such as Scratch, Tynker, and other web-based tools) require student accounts. These accounts may be created or accessed during sessions to support learning.

If your child is under 13, we recommend setting up a supervised family Gmail account.
Login details: Please write down and bring usernames and passwords for any existing accounts your child may already have (Gmail, Scratch, Tynker, etc.).

Parents Welcome!

We encourage parents to pop in 15–20 minutes before pickup to check out what students have been working on and celebrate their progress.

And most importantly… don’t forget your imagination and creativity!
