    Camp opens at 9.30 for early drop off, campers will be given a warm welcome from our Cypher teachers!

    10:00 Camp Starts!

    On the first day we will start with an ice breaker activity so that all Campers can get to know each other. On other days, Campers will work on smaller starter activities to introduce them to the content they will be learning about during the rest of the day.

    10:00 Coding project time! Part One

    Campers will start work on their coding projects, these are always focussed on cool topics and themes. In this first half, they’ll be introduced to the Camp theme by their camp teachers and they’ll learn many cool and interesting facts about it.

    11:00 Break

    Morning break time with a chance to stretch their legs and have a short run around the playground. We also provide Campers with a small snack to help bring their energy back up for the rest of the morning.

    11:15 Coding project time! Part Two

    Now it’s back into the classroom to finish off their morning coding projects. Campers will have the chance to work on additional challenges and extra steps if they manage to complete their projects a little early. Complete as many challenges as possible to get Camp achievement stickers.

    12:15 Lunch

    Campers start by having their lunch and chatting about what they’ve learnt that morning, and then have some free playtime to run around and make friends.

    13:15 Hands-On Craft Activity! Part One

    In the afternoon, campers will have a chance to get hands on making a cool themed craft activity!

    14:15 Break

    Afternoon break time with a chance to stretch their legs and have a short run around the playground. We also provide Campers with a small snack to help bring their energy back up for the rest of the afternoon. We all know that it’s harder to concentrate in the afternoons sometimes, which is why it’s so important to keep including small break times for Campers to recharge their brain batteries.

    14:30 Hands-On Robotics Activity!

    In this part of the day, kids will get hands-on with code and program a robot to undertake a series of challenges!

  • Students do NOT need to bring their own laptops. All computers, robots and teaching materials are provided by Cypher. If students would like to bring their own laptop, tablet or phone, that is completely fine. Please make sure and let us know at check-in that they have done so. We will take every care to ensure the safety of your child's device, however we cannot be held responsible for any damage caused at camp.

  • Cypher does NOT provide lunch at camps. We ask that you please pack a healthy lunch for your child. No nuts allowed! We do provide healthy snacks for both the morning and afternoon breaks as well as water throughout the day. If your child has any special dietary requirements or allergies, please provide details during booking or speak to a member of staff at check-in.

  • Yes. Once we know who is attending our holiday camps, we make sure students are kept within a suitable age group, for both educational and social purposes. If there is a wide variety of ages in the same classroom, children from our different age groups are given tasks appropriate to their age and ability within the lessons.
