Coding is the new cool! Highly creative, collaborative and good fun. Has your child ever had an awesome idea for an app or a game but didn’t know how to bring it to life? Join the Cape Town Science Centre’s Let’s Code Holiday Club – we will explore both object orientated coding and text based coding. The club will nurture their 21st Century skills as they go about enhancing their coding literacy. This is an excellent opportunity to acquire basic coding skills in a relaxed and creative environment – 12 hours of coding fun over a 4 day period and the opportunity to explore the rest of the Cape Town Science Centre’s offerings.
