Save the World Summer Camp

In our Save the World STEM & Coding camp this summer, students will explore topics like endangered species, reforestation, renewable energy and all things green.

At Cypher camps, your child will be surrounded by peers of their age group, while also having the opportunity to interact with younger and older campers. Our projects are tailored to different age groups and abilities. Younger children will explore block-based languages like Scratch, ScratchJr, and Blockly, while older kids delve into text-based languages such as JavaScript, Python, and TypeScript. Each hands-on project is adapted to challenge older campers with more complex tasks, providing multiple extensions for those campers who need a quicker, more advanced pace, while also supporting those beginners with less experience!

Our Cypher Coders camp teachers are not only enhanced DBS checked and experienced with children but also passionate about STEAM subjects. They have all undergone specialised camp training, equipping them with the knowledge and skills needed to ensure your child has the best possible camp experience this summer! Join us for a summer of growth, exploration, and unforgettable memories.

Children at a Cypher camp will use a variety of different technology and platforms during camps. Often, children will use either Scratch, p5.js or CoSpaces to complete a stand-alone coding project. Usually, this will be a game or animation that is related to our theme.
Their STEAM projects vary a little more from day to day, but during a week at camp children will often build and program one of our robots (Wunderkinds, Lego robots), program and use a Micro:bit, create an electronics project, and use their creativity in a more craft, or art focused activity (e.g. designing and making a board game).
