Our Summer Tech Fest is set to be a real sizzler! Packed with engaging technology workshops, children will get to grips with Python, try their hand at presenting, design and build their own mobile app, 3D print their own model, and electrify their builds with Minecraft's Redstone! Monday - Python in Pieces Breaking Python down into bitesize chunks, this workshops bridges the gap between block coding and text coding. Tuesday - Become a YouTuber "I want to be a YouTuber" Now is their chance, children will present their favourite subject, and see what it takes to shoot, edit and produce their own videos. Wednesday - App Design Children will design and create their own Quiz App, giving them an understanding of how apps are built and function for the user. They will use Blockly (block based coding) and Javascript (text based coding) to make their apps interactive and bring them to life. Thursday - 3D Printing In this workshop, children will use CAD (computer aided design) software to create a 3D object to print. They will acquire an elementary understanding of the process of 3D printing, the function and the role it plays across many industries. Friday - Minecraft Redstone Challenge Secret doors, electrified railway lines, levers and traps! This workshops explores just a few of the possibilities with Minecraft's Redstone (Minecraft electricity).
