GameMakers classes are a fun and engaging way for kids to dive into the world of video game creation. By tapping into their love of gaming, we introduce core skills in coding, math, science, art, reading, and writing — all while building digital literacy. This beginner-friendly program is part of our Canadian curriculum-aligned STEM education, designed to help students experience real progress while having a blast.
Students delve into the fascinating world of robotics with this course, where they learn how coding is utilized to control physical objects through the Edison Educational Robot. The transition from block code to text code using Python introduces them to more complex coding concepts.
The journey continues in our Game Wizards course, as students design complex games using Python on the PixelPAD platform. The crafting of well-structured, multi-level, and multiplayer games is a significant focus of this course.
Our Robotics Prodigies course is geared to prepare students for post-secondary level engineering challenges. Topics such as electronics principles, operating systems, physics, artificial intelligence, and computer science, are covered, empowering students to create inspiring robotics projects limited only by their imaginations.
Develop the skills to build immersive games from the ground up with our Game Development courses.

“Coding is challenging but worth the effort. It helped me use my math skills, learn robotics with Edison, learn Scratch, create 3D images into models, make stars with the Turtle program, and now, I am going to learn the Python program. I’m looking forward to going to STEM class again to see what I’m going to learn.” Read article.
