The 3-Phase Learning Journey

Our 10-month curriculum is divided into three progressive phases to ensure your child builds confidence step-by-step

Coding with Botley (Screen-Free)

We start with Botley, a fantastic tool that teaches the basics of coding without the need for a screen

  • Key Projects: Line Follower challenges, Animal Safari, and Treasure Hunts.
  • Skills: Students discover how to create simple programs to guide Botley through obstacles and mazes

Motorized Mechanical Building (MIKA)

After mastering basic logic, children progress to MIKA, focusing on engineering principles.

  • Key Projects: Building LEGO Cars, Mini Fans, Dump Trucks, and Propeller Cars.
  • Skills: Enhances fine motor skills, spatial awareness, and an understanding of how gears and motors work together.

LEGO WeDo! (Play, Discover, Learn)

The final phase uses LEGO WeDo kits to bridge the gap between building and programming.

  • Key Projects: Creating the LEGO Snail and LEGO Car.
  • Skills: Children build complex structures and then program them to move and interact, bringing their ideas to life.
