So what will your child do?

 

Our clubs use the education version of Minecraft to ensure that children can work together in a controlled, safe and sensible environment. This adds activities and tasks into the hugely popular game and promotes teamwork and doing everything from changing the weather and switching off zombies to exploring historical places and dealing with an erupting volcano. We promote literacy and numeracy skills in the most fun way possible!

​

Students will also get a solid chunk of learning how to code. We use great tools like Mining Turtles, Code Studio and Scratch 3.0 to get kids understanding principles like algorithms and computational thinking. We also aim to get kids outdoors for computing-unplugged activities. Our tools and approaches are aligned to the KS2/KS3 curriculum for IT & Computing for Primary and Secondary schools nationally.

​

PLEASE NOTE: Outdoor activities are weather-dependent and at the discretion of the teacher and facilitator. Weather can affect a number of activities, particularly, rain and wind.
