About this Event

Would you like to play a game? Young coders design their very own ghastly game for the spooky season using Microsoft MakeCode Arcade this October. Your super-scientist Avatar could spot invaders, catch ghouls or fly into Space on rocket powered broomsticks! Spookily-good fun.

Suitable for ages 11-14 children who are currently in school years 7-9.

These workshops are unaccompanied. Adult/s are welcome to wait in the café area of the Science Oxford Centre during the session. All club attendees need a ticket.

Our unaccompanied workshops are designed for young people to work on projects that interest them alongside their peers. Led by our expert club leaders, try out bespoke activities designed to provide science-inspired fun challenges. There is a different theme each week so we and you are always learning something new!
