It's Halloween and our classroom has become a hideout for ghosts! So, this half-term, we're going on a ghost hunt armed with micro:bits. micro:bit is a pocket-size codeable device that can be used to teach computing in a fun way.
Why not come and join us for some spooky coding fun?
The session is aimed at children aged 9 years and older and is ideal for children at the upper KS2 and KS3 levels.
The fee is £16 per participant in this workshop. For participants under the age of 14, we require an accompanying adult to attend the workshop alongside them. Accompanying adult tickets can be purchased for the normal museum entry price of £12.
Date: Wednesday 29th October 2025
Time: 11 am - 12.30 pm
Please note that we will be using our classroom kits for the session and you will not be able to take these away at the end. We will however have micro:bit kits available for sale in our shop to purchase.
