You’ll be amazed what your child can create with technology at Discover Coding! Kids of all skill levels will feel empowered as they learn, code, create, and gain hands-on experience at these unique summer camps. Coders ages 5 to 15 can choose to learn on their favourite gaming platforms, have fun with robotics, develop their own games and apps, and get creative with YouTube video creation or graphic design.

Learn With Popular Gaming Platforms

Minecraft and Minecraft Jr Camps are always a hit! During Discover Coding’s Minecraft-themed camps, students can learn the basics of coding by creating their own mods, building resources, and designing incredible 3D structures. Your child will have a blast playing alongside fellow Minecraft enthusiasts while learning valuable STEM and coding skills.

Roblox Game Design is for all the kids who love Roblox! With Discover Coding, these kids can learn to design their own obstacle course (Obby), learn the basics of 3D modelling and game design, and begin to learn how to code in Lua. Is there a better way to learn than in a room full of excited kids who all share your same interests?

Have Fun with Robotics

Robotics Camp brings together coding and robotics for the perfect combination of learning and fun! Kids will get the chance to put on their inventor hats as they come up with creative solutions to fun challenges like Inch Worm Races, a Robot Obstacle Course, and the Robo Sumo Wrestling challenge. Discover Coding will introduce them to an array of tools and technology, with play-filled activities that teach engineering design, circuitry, robotics, and coding.

 

Discover Coding: Progressive Coding Program

Using discovery-based learning, students are encouraged to learn through hands-on exploration. Coders will be introduced to basic concepts and work to specialize their skillset as they move progressively through the coding levels. Achievements will be encouraged through report cards and certificates, so kids can see how far they have come.

Block Coding helps develop a strong coding foundation. During these introductory courses, students will get comfortable with problem-solving and technology as they begin to build their own games, apps and projects on the computer. Best of all, they will gain confidence and friends in this fun and positive group learning environment!

Python Programming offers the next steps with the introduction of text-based coding. Students will be able to develop more complex games and programs as they expand their knowledge of Python algorithms.

Get Creative with Technology

Technology and creativity intersect with Discover Coding’s selection of creative classes. This summer kids can learn new skills and expand their abilities with exciting classes like YouTuber Boot Camp and Graphics & Website Design Camp.
