Coding Club

Our new Coding Club is for Years 2 to 6 students only, and the seven week program will run on Tuesday lunchtimes from 1.30pm to 2.30pm, commencing on 13 February. Students will use school devices which they'll bring from their classroom, with their lunch, to the Hall. 

Code Camp allows kids to hone their coding skills and keep practising through weekly sessions over the term! Students will produce multiple games and apps using our exciting online platform Code Camp World! We have made Code Camp World as accessible as possible so students can truly focus on the fun aspects of coding and carry on their journey at home. Each week students will choose the features they want to build, and advance their problem-solving skills to build these features using code. They will take ownership over their projects and collaborate with their peers to make awesome apps!

SPECIAL OFFER - COMPLIMENTARY CODING LESSON
