What is this Summer School about?
The Coding Summer School will teach your children how to write code using the latest Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ with built-in WiFi and Bluetooth while learning English. At the end of the course, they will be given their own Raspberry Pi to continue learning after going back home. Additionally, we will provide plenty of interactive activities for the afternoons and the evenings. This will facilitate your child’s interaction with other students in a recreational and didactic way.
Your children will find themselves confident in connecting with people from different backgrounds and cultures, using the English skills they learned in the classroom. Coding is one of the programmes that we offer at LAL Berkhamsted, our Digital Summer School. Find out more about what we offer to provide your child with the best experience during the summer.
