Campus and Community (C&C) is exploring the possibility of offering a new four-day after-school program by Takween, Home of Design & Innovation, designed for children aged 9 to 12.

Before moving ahead, we're asking families to register their interest to help us assess demand.

Wearable Technology: Design, Code, Create

What if a bracelet could light up, or an accessory could respond to your movement? In this hands-on program, children discover how technology can be built into the things we wear.

What your child will learn

• How wearable technology is used in everyday life
• How to use coding to create an interactive wearable product
• How to apply the design-thinking process to develop an original idea
• How to build, test, and improve a working prototype
• How to present their design and explain how it works

What your child will take away If the program goes ahead, each participant will complete and present an original wearable technology project, developed through ideation, coding, assembly, testing, and refinement.

About Takween The program will be run by Takween – Home of Deign & Innovation, which is an NCFE-accredited center, offering programs that merge creativity, culture, and innovation. Their aim is to find the gap between the education system and work environment and enhance youth’s engagement with their environment.
