-
Pick your weekend
Sessions run every Saturday and Sunday — choose whichever day fits your family, online or in person at the National ICT Innovation Hub.
-
Your child builds, step by step
Every learner follows the same hands-on progression: Scratch to build logic and creativity, Electronic Circuit Building to bring ideas into the physical world, and Arduino to program real devices — traffic lights, sensors, and more.
-
Learn with a qualified tutor, in a small group
Every session is led by a trained tutor, with small class sizes so your child gets real attention, not just screen time.
-

About this programme
Weekend Impact Program
Learning to code isn't a one-time thing — it's a skill that grows with regular practice, and that's exactly what the Weekend Impact Program is built for. Whether your child has already been with us through the holiday program or is just starting out, this weekly program gives them a consistent space to keep building, experimenting, and growing their confidence with technology.
Sessions follow the same hands-on approach we're known for: real projects, not just theory. Depending on your child's level, they'll work through Scratch-based coding, move into physical computing with Arduino, or take on robotics builds that bring their code to life.
Younger learners build games and make lights blink; older students take on more complex projects like traffic-light systems and IoT devices, using the same tools professionals rely on. Every session is led by a qualified tutor who adjusts the pace to where your child actually is, not just where the syllabus says they should be.
For families continuing from the holiday program, this is the natural next step — a way to keep the skills your child built from fading between breaks. For those joining fresh, weekends are a low-pressure way to start, with no prior experience needed.
The Weekend Impact Program is open for enrollment now, with sessions running every weekend. Spaces are allocated as families enroll, so if you'd like your child to have a spot, get in touch and we'll help you find the right fit.
