2-Day Science and Coding Camp
Can electricity work without a power source? What is an algorithm and what does it mean to debug? For 2 half days, your child will enjoy a gamut of interactive hands-on activities focused on S.T.E.A.M experiential learning, puzzles and programming. Specially curated for 7 - 9 yr olds, children will have the opportunity to investigate different problem-solving techniques, brainstorm the possibilities, and understand the science behind how things work and what coding is all about.

A Science and Coding Camp
Our Science and Coding Camp is a 2-half day science and technology camp for children 7-9 yrs old. The aim of the camp is to impart an understanding of science across different levels and experiments. It is a thought process used to formulate solutions for a given problem to demonstrate the process of scientific thinking.
Coding with the Foos is a platform that seeks to ignite children's curiosity about computer science and turn programming into something fun! Students will be introduced to a whimsical virtual world that is brought to life by programming adorable characters and learning through puzzle games.
Each day is filled with curated experiment activities, and a coding lesson at the very end. All participants will be provided with a learning kit full of materials required for this camp.
Some of our activities include:
Light and Shadow Play
Discover how shadows are created
Donut Detective
Learn about algorithms and sequencing
Make a Kaleidoscope
Introduce light and how it travels
Tool Trouble
Learn to code efficiently with loops
Objectives
Demonstrate the process of scientific thinking and understand the science behind how things work
Develop sensory development, fine motor skills and social communication.
To learn coding fundamentals such as algorithms, sequencing, debugging and loops.
Instill computational thinking and inspire a problem solving mindset.

Our Pedagogy
We spend hours intentionally building these life skills in our students so that not a minute is wasted.
FAQ
Our holiday camps are suitable for beginners who have no prior knowledge or experience in technology-related courses. Even if your child has had prior knowledge or experience, he or she will still find our holiday camps refreshing due to the sheer variety of platforms we cover and the thematic approach we employ which makes every camp different and new.
No lunch will be provided as this is not a full day camp. However, short breaks will be given in between the camp where your child can consume snacks and drinks.
