After School code clubs
We organize teacher training and support for volunteers and educators to run free, extra-curricular coding clubs for children. Clubs can be run from a range of venues, from schools, libraries, to community centers. Kids are free to build and share their ideas, learning along the way. The Code Clubs meet during school extracurricular sessions or after school sessions for an hour per week.
We provide fun projects that are easy to follow step-by-step guides which help children learn Scratch, HTML & CSS, Python and introducing processor to build games, animations, mobile apps and websites. The projects gradually introduce coding concepts to allow children to build their knowledge incrementally, meaning there’s also no need for the adult running the session to be a computing expert.

I Read and Code is a Creative Computing program designed for kids to explore and create! The kids read and document their stories in a design workbook, then use SCRATCH to create their characters to come out live with code. Children learn how to provide feedback on other students’ projects.
Summer Holidays Bootcamp
During summer, we introduce kids between ages 10-18 to Arduino tutorials that bring together craft, electronics, and programming. We walk them through the process of making a series of quirky customizable projects including a sparkling bracelet, a glow in the dark bookmark, a fabric piano, and a monster that sings when you hold its hands.
Play with cutting-edge technologies and learn sewing, programming, and circuit design along the way. This program is a great way to introduce girls to engineering. After they exit the bootcamp, kids will explore the projects with their friends and parents, REGISTER NOW
