Junior Coders

Your kids will love learning to code in our hands-on and engaging drag-and-drop Scratch and CodeMonkey coding classes.

Scratch is a friendly, fun platform that engages kids quickly and builds their core understanding of key coding concepts such as loops, conditionals, variables, lists, operators, and custom blocks. It’s a great course to both start and continue your coding journey. Our programs are a brilliant way for your child to begin developing future-fit STEM skills that are beyond what they’re taught in school.

CodeMonkey teaches children to learn both block-based and text-based coding in an engaging, gameified environment, which rewards kids for every lesson they complete. 

Catering to new and returning students, our coursework is tailored to the experience level of the class. For returning students, assigned activities build on prior learnings and stretch skills with more complex coding tasks.

**SCHOOL TERM PROGRAMS: Please note, enrolments are only open to attendees of the school location.
