Our In-Person Code Club offers an enriching experience where children dive into the fascinating world of coding through the Game Dev Club, Minecraft adventures, and VR Gaming. Our Cambridge club is one of 5 locations for in-person coding and fun gaming. We also have clubs in Haverhill, Saffron Walden, Bishops Stortford, and Bury St Edmunds.
Learn coding as a beginner in Scratch
Our mentors help children start their coding adventure by learning the basics of code through code based blocks in scratch. Scratch uses drag & drop code blocks and a visually engaging interface to teach children beginner coding skills and help them gain confidence in tech. Each session includes a game of the week where children can use “guided hacks” to apply their coding skills to change to game.
“Its super satisfying with the younger ages when they come along not having a clue how to use a computer and within a term, they're building code and have become super competent. It requires a little patience at first but then it snow balls with the young kids. It starts to click and then bang they can do all sorts!” - Club Mentor Tom
Use Coding Skills in Minecraft
Our clubs also have Minecraft Educational Edition for children to apply their coding skills to help build worlds in Minecraft. They can choose different mod worlds to change as well as join fun mini games. They’ll unleash their creativity to build whatever they can think of in different landscapes and scenarios.
“My favourite part of the clubs are when members come up with weird and creative Minecraft ideas, and I can help them bring them to life.” Club Mentor Amitai
Relax with Gaming
After learning coding skills, they can relax and play with friends in the “chill zone”. The chill zone has various games to play on the Nintendo Switch including Mario Kart.
“My favourite part of being a club mentor is having a laugh with the kids.” - Club Mentor Darren
Introduce them to VR Gaming
Our in person clubs also have VR Gaming Headsets for children to join in groups and use their strategic skills in Amoung Us VR. They can have fun with friends while also gaining an interest in the latest tech that gaming has to offer!
Our clubs are run by DBS checked, STEM Certified mentors who are happy to assist in any code questions children may have. They guide children through their coding journey, providing support and encouragement every step of the way. We also understand that every child is unique, which is why we tailor our curriculum to suit individual learning styles and abilities. Whether your child is a beginner or already has some coding experience, there's something for everyone at our Code Club.
Joining our code club can help ignite your child's passion for coding and technology. It can also bring them hours of fun with friends. With our engaging code learning, experienced mentors, and exciting VR gaming, your child is bound to have a blast while developing valuable skills for the future.
