Coding Lab’s MIT-inspired and award-winning curriculum seeks to instil a passion for coding in every child. The classes will give children an understand­ing of how games work, and the ability to code their own games/animations, make their own apps and learn to problem-solve as they debug their own programmes.

Ages five to six years will learn the basics of computatio­nal thinking with a combinatio­n of interactiv­e touchscree­ns and hands-on educationa­l toys. In the Young Computer Scientists programme, seven-to-nine-year-olds pick up drag-and-drop Scratch programmin­g and build their own AI friend with speech and facial recognitio­n capabiliti­es. In the Advanced Computer Scientists programme, children aged 10 to 12 years can invent apps that will help UN’s Sustainabl­e Developmen­t Goals or get started on Python, one of the most versatile programmin­g languages in the world. Teens from 13 to 18 years of age can also get started with Python, Artificial Intelligen­ce and Machine Learning, all key topics for a future world of technology.

All classes are led by passionate educators who have technologi­cal expertise and hail from top universiti­es. What’s more, campers have workbooks and snacks during break time and can celebrate their new coding knowledge with a certificat­e upon completion.
