Web Development

In this summer camp you will learn to design and develop modern websites using HTML and CSS. Our expert mentors will guide you through each step of the web development process, helping you create user-friendly and responsive websites that are optimised for speed and accessibility.

Through hands-on projects and challenges, you will gain a solid foundation in web development and build essential skills in design, layout, and typography. You'll have access to all the necessary tools and equipment, including laptops and development software, so you can make the most of your learning experience.

Our web development summer camp is completely free of charge and provides a fun and supportive environment for young people to explore their interests, learn new skills, and make new friends. No prior experience in coding is necessary as we are starting with the basics.

Game Development

Scratch is used as one of the tools for our game development summer camp. It is a visual programming language that is designed specifically for young people, making it an ideal platform for introducing beginners to the world of coding and game development.

Scratch allows you to create games by dragging and dropping blocks of code, rather than typing out lines of text. This makes it easy to experiment with different programming concepts and create complex games without needing to memorise complex syntax. For those of you who are up for a challenge, we will explore together the programming language Python.

You will learn how to create characters, animate movements, design levels, and add sound effects and music to create an immersive gaming experience. You'll have access to all the necessary tools and equipment, including laptops and development software, so you can make the most of your learning experience.
