Holiday Programs

Winter Tech Quest Camps - Short, project-based tech camps for the school holidays.

Friendly, focused holiday camps in robotics, coding and Minecraft game coding. Available live online and in-person at Chadstone, Narre Warren and Bundoora — students leave with a finished project and a real win.

A holiday week that actually counts.

Every camp is built around a clear project goal so students stay engaged and parents see real outcomes. Small groups, expert mentors, modern tools — and a finished build to take home at the end of the week.

Three holiday streams

Pick the stream that fits your child's interest — or mix across the holidays.
