Two Clubs. One Creative Coding Adventure.
Welcome to a unique learning experience where young coders aged 8+ get to explore the world of digital creativity on screen and in the real world!
The Story STEAM Coding Club Combo brings together the best of both worlds. Scratch Coding Club and the micro:bit Coding Club - offer a playful, hands-on learning through games, stories and invention.
Scratch Coding Club
Create interactive games, animations and stories using Scratch – a beginner-friendly, coding platform. Each week, we dive into themed coding challenges inspired by imagination, stories, classic computer games and play. It’s ideal for children who love to bring their ideas to life on screen. No experience needed!
🎮 Example themes:
Platformer games · Story adventures · Games · Animations
Micro:bit Coding Club
Take coding off the screen and into your hands with the micro:bit – a pocket-sized computer that lets you code real lights, sensors and sounds! With an outdoor-themed twist in the first block, our projects encourage kids to get curious about the world around them while learning the basics of physical computing.
🌱 Example themes:
Compass directions · Data logger · Nature sensor · Smart badge · Score Counter
Why Join Both?
Combining Scratch and micro:bit gives your child a well-rounded foundation in coding and computational thinking. They’ll build skills in both digital storytelling and real-world invention, while having loads of fun and creative freedom along the way!
Pre-recorded tutorials and printable Scratch scripts and MakeCode scripts for our first term in the academy are available right away. This is where you will find the link to live sessions and projects too.
Live Scratch Coding sessions are on Wednesdays at 3pm and Micro:bit will be on Thursdays at 11am during term time.
What’s included:
- A bank of creative pre-recorded coding tutorials
- More pre-recorded coding sessions released each week during term time, building up into a library and yours to keep while you’re a member.

Terms and Conditions apply
Terms and Conditions for Class Sign-Up
By booking a place on classes or clubs, you agree to the following:
1. No Cancellations or Refunds
All bookings are final. We do not offer refunds for cancellations or changes in personal circumstances. Missed sessions cannot be refunded or rescheduled.
2. Illness or Absence
If your child is unable to attend a live session due to illness or other commitments, we are unable to offer a refund, credit, or make-up class.
3. Class Cancellations by Us
If we need to cancel a session (e.g. due to tutor illness or technical difficulties), we will offer an alternative date for catch up sessions.
4. Behaviour and Participation
We expect all participants to behave respectfully. If a child’s behaviour disrupts the class, we reserve the right to remove them without refund.
Cameras should be on at the start of every session but can be turned off after that if they wish. However, the idea behind small group sessions is to create a collaborative environment where the groups can get to know each other so I encourage cameras to stay on. :o) Participants may use the chat function, unmute their microphones to speak or simply hold up their models to show what they have made.
