Code Your 'Bunny'! April 2-Day Easter School Holiday Program (Y6-Y9_Intermediate)!

This program is ideal for students with a basic background in coding and an interest in technology. 

But it’s not just about coding—we get active too!

Program Overview:

Join our 2025 Easter holiday program at UWA for an exciting and educational 2 days designed for tech-savvy students eager to explore the worlds of JavaScript and Python programming.
In collaboration with Squadrone, this program offers a unique opportunity to dive into coding, robotics, and drone technology, combining creativity, innovation, and hands-on experience.

What They'll Do and Learn:

- JavaScript Programming with Sphero BOLT: Students will learn the fundamentals of JavaScript programming by creating an interactive map of a miniature Easter Bunny hunting site. They'll code Sphero BOLT robots to navigate, complete hunting tasks, and even design personalised event experiences using sensor-based activities.

- Drone Flying & Python Programming: Participants will get hands-on experience flying Tello drones while mastering Python programming. They’ll learn to control the drone, perform advanced maneuvers, and design custom flight missions, all while understanding the principles of flight control and asynchronous commands.

Learning Outcomes:

• Programming Skills: Enhance coding abilities with practical applications in both JavaScript and Python.
• Problem-Solving: Develop strategies for navigating complex environments and overcoming technical challenges.
• Event Planning & Mission Execution: Learn how to plan and execute interactive experiences and drone missions.
• Collaboration: Foster teamwork and communication by working on creative and technical projects with peers.
• Innovation & Creativity: Encourage out-of-the-box thinking by integrating cutting-edge technology in fun and engaging ways.
