They will get creative with tech and recreate a scene from a favourite book or compose and tell an original adventure, mixing coding with storytelling. Fun, engaging and low-pressure, no prior coding experience is required. For the Lifelong Learning Festivals Parents and kids have the opportunity to borrow a Ozobot robotic kit miniature line following robots which can sense colours and use that to understand instructions from our Western BACE Robotic Lending Library, to continue having fun learning together by completing self-paced activities.
