This creative course is designed with 10 to 14 year olds in mind. Covering vital concepts of computer programming at a fun and relaxed pace, over the 4 week period students will learn about game design and building. They will work towards programming their very own Space Invaders game whilst covering other topics to allow them to build on their ideas after the course.

The Scratch module will cover topics such as:

• Drawing and controlling sprites

• Sensing and sounds

• Variables and Loops

• Game design and building

This introductory course is ideal for children who already have a good grasp of computers but would like to pursue their interest further. Conducted in a friendly environment, this course teaches important computer skills whilst providing the building blocks to feed their creativity further.
