Our popular summer camp is back! This year, we will have a mix of activities surrounding circuits & electronics, code & storytelling, and 3D design & arts + crafts.
2024 Themes
Pixel Pioneers Camp will be all about coding and design - alongside coding our 2D video game, we’ll also be bringing elements of it into the 3D world! After coding, drawing, and animating on Scratch, we’ll give your game a 90s retro spin by 3D printing and designing your own cartridge.
Can circuit-making be an artform? We think so! In Soft Circuits Camp, we'll be making art with electronics, circuits, and light. Campers will be exploring creative, non-traditional ways of creating light and shaping electricity, as well as learning the science behind it all. From flexible fabrics to conductive inks, the possibilities are endless!
--
All our camps combine creativity and coding and deliver it with a healthy dose of crafting and outdoor time so they aren't spending the day on screens.
We build confidence in digital skills, help our campers understand what is possible with all the amazing technology around us, and inspire them to become compassionate creators of the future.
