At our Game Creation camp your child will embrace their creative side as they design and code their very own computer games. The perfect place to start for beginners who want to kick start their coding journey, or ideal for those who have completed Spark Camp with us already. Each child will design two engaging platform games and then bring them to life with intuitive, yet powerful, drag and drop code.
At the end of the camp, their finished games will be published and sent home for you to enjoy together. Every student also receives lifelong access to our coding software, so they can keep creating and coding at home. Along the way, children will have loads of fun, make new friends, and build the confidence and digital skills they need for the future.

My daughter (age 9) attended in Jan 2018 and absolutely loved it, it's now her new favourite holiday camp! She didn't know any other children there, but after the kids days she had made some new friends and very keen to go back to the next camp!
Sam was really excited to come to camp and he enjoyed every day. He loved being able to make up his own game and still loves playing it even now. Excellent support, personal, great friends and lots of fun.
My son absolutely loved his first Code Camp! He was so eager to show us what he had learnt each day! Well organised, loved the T-shirt/Cap and the Medal of acknowledgment at the end of the 3 days! We've already booked for the next one!
Fantastic course, professionally run and with a friendly/knowledgeable team who connected brilliantly with the kids. They made something that can be difficult enjoyable.
Code Camp was an excellent experience and lots of fun. It was amazing how we got to code our very own games, which was an opportunity that I had to take. The staff were kind and supportive and always willing to help.
My son was extremely excited about the stage 1 course, and couldn't wait to go back each morning. I would in future recommend to share a curriculum with parents, to understand what was learned and what tools used--it isn't easy to interrogate an 8yo, and outside of outcomes I don't really know the details of what was taught.
