What if I don’t have a laptop for term classes?
No worries, nothing can stop a determined mind!
If you don’t have a laptop, make a note during enrolment indicating that you need to use Ant Programming provided laptop in class and we will get you covered. No extra cost applied. A limited number of laptops available.
If you occasionally forget to bring your laptop, talk to our friendly educators and they will sort it out for you.
What are drop-off and pick-up time?
Programming classes start on time. Drop-off is available 5-10 minutes before the fun starts so the class educators will have enough time to set up the student laptops.
Pick-up is available at the end of each class, no later than 15 minutes after class completes. If you miss the pick-up time, we will call you and keep your children engaging in the classroom until you come. AUD $10 will be charged for every 10 minutes wait.
Is there any class suitable for a child who never uses a computer?
Yes, both Scratch Level A courses and Robotics Foundation courses are suitable for beginners. Zero programming knowledge and experience required.
