Action-Packed Days

Check-In

Our friendly and experienced staff will be waiting to greet you at camp. Look out for our Camp Manager in an orange Code Camp t-shirt, they’re also a qualified teacher and first aid trained. Once you’ve signed in your child, it’s time to say goodbye to let your kids make new friends and then embark on their coding adventure!

You can drop off between 8:30 and 9:00 am, and pick-up between 3:30 and 4:00pm. Extended hours are available at certain locations.

Day One

Design, create & code!
Before we start coding we spend some time with your child brainstorming and digital storytelling; choosing magical backgrounds, a hero from our huge range of characters, and designing the first level of our game.

Once designed we use block coding to bring our world to life adding animation, in-game physics (gravity), and movement (left, right, jumping).

Day Two

Coding a blockbuster game!
Day two is where your child’s game becomes a blockbuster with baddies, snowball-throwing-unicorns, spinning platforms and deadly lava!

It's all about brainstorming, designing, and then coding the fun elements that will set their game apart from the others.

Day Three

Ready for launch!
It’s the final day of Spark and we’re getting ready to unleash our creations into the world for all to play!
  • Finishing touches to our levels, adding a few new game features, and possibly even a few new characters
  • We’ll add touch controls so your kids can play their games on any mobile device!
  • An awards ceremony, recognising each child’s creative and coding achievements
