Join us within our custom-built CIY world, designed to provide a safe, controlled environment where children will participate in engaging hands-on challenges that require engineering, planning, teamwork, communication, problem solving and creative thinking. Our CIY.Club Coaches will use each challenge activity as an opportunity to explore how to act responsibly on an online platform, identify and reward examples of teamwork, discuss conflict resolution techniques and also expose them to topics within the digital technologies landscape. This will set them up with the important skills required to continue further into coding and digital creation in the future. Ages 8-17.
