Students will gain a basic knowledge of computer programming by exploring block coding with Scratch. This coding language requires no previous knowledge and acts as the perfect platform into the world of computer literacy. Each week students will learn key computational concepts and practices through the creation of their own animations, interactive stories and games. They will investigate fundamentals such as sequence, loops, conditionals, testing and debugging and creative problem solving, giving them the tools to start exploring other programming languages.

Little Makers is a creative art Lab for young kids (4-10 years). Formerly known as My Little van Gogh, Little Makers is a Reggio Emilio inspired Art Atelier.
The program has been carefully designed with a focus on children's creative development. In the atelier not the result but the process is leading. The art workshops provide a nurturing space to express, experiment, tinker, create, build, have fun and get messy. We boost creativity through a variety of proposals and explorations while letting them discover at their own pace. Process art focuses on the art of making, experimenting and discovering, rather than the art product itself. Children use exploration to discover new materials, techniques and tools in an open ended way that encourages critical thinking, problem solving and creative learning.

Always wanted to learn the best game in the world? Join the chess club! Playing chess is not only great fun, but it’s the best brain training you can find. During this course you will enhance your level of concentration, patience, and strategic insight. You will practice in planning (thinking before doing) and build your confidence. All these skills may come in handy in other parts of your life as well.
The chess lessons are provided by Schaakplezier. We have several qualified chess trainers and assistants. During the lessons we use the booklets of the chess-step-method. So what can you expect during a chess-class? We will start with a brief introduction of today’s topic, followed by working in the booklet. After all that theory, it’s time to put that theory into practice: by playing actual games of chess.
We are able to customize each chess lesson to the level of the children participating in the class. This way, the chess lessons will always be exactly challenging enough for students.
Summary: a customized chess club for all levels of chess players with multiple qualified chess trainers and assistants.

The Science Club workshops help children to develop the ability to translate their knowledge of scientific concepts and findings into daily life activities. We will focus on chemistry, a branch of physical sciences, which is often called "the central science" because it forms a bridge between physical sciences and biology. Experiencing science and technology is interesting and fun! We will learn more by doing cool experiments, using simple ingredients found around your house.
And yes, you may try it at home! My name is Inrainí Ramos Salabarría. For the past 14 years, I have been developing and leading chemistry workshops for children. My workshops are for children of primary school age who are interested in natural and applied science, including chemistry, physics, biology, engineering and computer science. By letting them participate in simple experiments, my workshops keep children engaged while expanding their knowledge of how science works in everyday life - and beyond. I was inspired by my own child’s passion for learning. I am a chemical engineer and technology expert with international companies, and have a Master’s Degree in Engineering, with a specialization in plastic transformation.
