On Completion
The kids will understand the fundamental programming concepts E.g. ‘If Statements’, ‘Forever Loops’, ‘Logical Loops’, ‘Variables’, etc. At this stage we introduce HTML (Website development) and App Inventor.
Simply the program layout is very similar to swimming lessons, i.e. the kids will progress and advance with each class and term. The 2017/2018 season will have three terms of eight weeks, each term will take into account mid-term breaks, school holidays and are nicely spread out over the academic year. Enrollment rules are based purely on a first come basis.
