Project Overview.

This project is part of our Creative and Digital Careers in Halton (Halton Youth Provision) programme.

During this four week project, the young people participating will take part in a variety of online programming robotics workshops and will learn how to plan, code, build and experiment with robotics in a number of different ways.

The sessions also explore creative careers, career pathways with a focus on coding and robotics, giving insight into what it is like to work in the industry.

We will be providing each participant with a Creative Pack which will provide them with equipment to get them hands-on during each session.

Who can get involved?

We are looking for young people from Halton Borough aged 10-16 who have an interest in animation and creative careers.

To ensure that we are complying with COVID safety regulations these sessions will be delivered online and there is a maximum of 10 places available for participants on this project.
