Music X Scratch & Coding Camp
Welcome back our Music X Scratch Summer Camps!
This workshop is a unique, one-week half-day summer camp designed for young children aged 5-10. It explores the fascinating intersection of music and coding, providing a hands-on learning experience that nurtures their creativity and technical skills. Through the use of Scratch, a block-based coding platform, participants will dive into the principles of coding and music, learning how these two domains intertwine.
This program is generously provided by Mastery Music, who have kindly allocated C.O.D.E. 5 exclusive discounted seats to both camps taking place in July. This partnership underscores our shared commitment to making such enriching experiences accessible to all.
Music X Scratch will be offered twice in July and once in August, the curriculum is the same for all three camps thus we recommend participants register for only one.
