Join us for a week of creativity and innovation together with our partners TechLabs. Through hands-on projects and fun challenges, campers explore the world of programming, problem-solving, and digital creation.
Age groups & participation fee:
- 7 - 10 years | CHF 650
- 11+ years | CHF 650
Programme:
Group 7–10 years
Each morning, your child will have the opportunity to build and programme their very own robot, before sending it on an underwater mission. They will explore volcanoes, deploy sensors and take part in a final robot showdown. Afternoons are filled with exciting on- and off-campus activities, such as a visit to the Drone Hub at EMPA (ETH Zurich), where your child will gain fascinating insights into the world of drone technology and innovation. They will pick up skills in coding, robotics, problem solving, teamwork and creative thinking in a fun and engaging German- and English-speaking environment.
Group 11+ years
Children start the week at EMPA's Drone Hub, gaining fascinating insights into the world of drone technology and innovation. From Tuesday onwards, each morning features either a campus activity or an exciting excursion, such as rail biking, baking at Müller Beck and a unique session with trained dogs. Back on campus, they progress from learning the basics of drones in a virtual simulator to flying real drones indoors, and finally to programming fully autonomous missions using coding and computational thinking. By Friday, they will have developed genuine skills in programming, problem solving and creative thinking, made new friends and have plenty to talk about at dinner.
