A project portfolio

Our students put together at least 20 projects, including an animated calling card, a cartoon with voiceover and a game with multiple levels and obstacles

We code, and bring dreams to life

A project-based approach

As they progress, each child works on their own projects and creates unique virtual worlds. They pick their favorite category, design interesting content for it, and program unique 3D characters
