Challenges may vary depending on the child’s age/ability as we have multiple streams running within each session.

Coding with Minecraft

Learn how to code in Java with Minecraft in a highly interactive learning environment!

The participant can use a drag & drop interface which is highly intuitive, but the blocks also show the actual java code too. Coding concepts like variables, if/then/else statements and constructors will be learnt. More advanced participants can switch any time from block-based drag-and-drop code to Javascript.

The children can play with their creations and show their friends at the end of the session on a secure server that only the course participants on the day will have access to.

• Code in Minecraft using a Java editor
• Increase complexity with Conditions and Variables
• Learn about Boolean and Loops
• Test and debug using logic and systematic reasoning
• Connect your world and Play in Minecraft

All courses are led by qualified Engineers, Physicists, Mathematicians, and Computer Scientists.

All children between the ages of 7 and 12 are welcome to register. No prior coding experience necessary.

If your child has been to one of these sessions before, then their learning will be extended further and they will not have to repeat the same content as before. At any course, we have 3 different streams operating.
