CIY.Club Holiday Camps

CIY.Club Holiday Camps provide structured, technology-focused programmes for children and teenagers during school holiday periods. These camps aim to introduce young learners to foundational digital skills in a fun, hands-on environment that combines project work, creative problem solving, group activities, and guided instruction. The overall goal of the holiday camps is to help participants develop digital literacy, logical thinking, creativity, and confidence with technology, rather than simply consuming digital content.

CIY.Club operates as a technology education provider with a mission to equip young learners with future-focused skills. Holiday camps are just one of the ways that CIY.Club supports children and teens in exploring digital technologies, understanding coding concepts, and gaining practical experience applying what they have learned. The camps are designed to be engaging, age-appropriate, and supportive of different learning levels, from beginners to those with some prior experience.

Types of Holiday Camps Offered

CIY.Club Holiday Camps are typically offered as short-term programmes run during school holidays. These camps vary in theme and technical focus depending on the location and schedule, but common camp types include:

Game Coding Camps
These camps are designed to introduce participants to the fundamentals of computer coding and interactive game creation. Children and teens learn how to use coding logic and creative design methods to build simple games. They explore concepts such as sequencing, conditions, loops, events, and basic logic structures in a way that is accessible and enjoyable. At the conclusion of the camp, participants often get to take their projects home to continue exploring or refining their work.

3D Printing & Design Camps
3D Design and Printing Camps focus on introducing learners to the basics of three-dimensional modelling and design. Participants learn how to use design software to create digital models, manipulate shapes, and understand spatial relationships. Once the digital designs are complete, campers have the opportunity to print their creations using 3D printing technology. These camps help children see their ideas transformed from digital concepts into physical objects, reinforcing creativity, precision, and problem-solving skills.

Website Design Camps (Upcoming)
CIY.Club advertises that Website Design Camps are planned as a future offering. These camps will focus on teaching learners how to build and customise functional websites using commonly used tools and systems. By the end of the camp, participants will have created a working website they can continue to develop after the programme. Website design camps aim to blend creative aesthetics with practical functionality, giving learners insights into both design principles and technical implementation.

Camp Structure and Learning Approach

Holiday camps are structured as full-day sessions, often lasting around six hours. The core focus of each day is immersive project-based learning, where students work on technology projects relevant to the camp theme. For example, coding camps involve hands-on programming tasks and game design challenges, while 3D design camps involve digital modelling exercises.

CIY.Club provides all necessary resources during camp, including laptops, internet access and other technical tools required to complete projects. This eliminates the need for participants to bring their own devices or specialised equipment. The camps are led by instructors who are experienced in both technology and youth engagement, ensuring that learning is guided, safe, and supportive.

In addition to technical instruction, CIY.Club integrates offline group activities and collaborative tasks that encourage teamwork, peer interaction, communication and social bonding. Prize-based challenges, games, and creative group tasks are often part of the daily routine to make learning fun and to motivate participants to engage actively.

Age Range and Suitability

CIY.Club Holiday Camps are designed for children and teens aged approximately 7 to 17 years. This broad range ensures that both younger learners and older students can participate in technology learning at levels appropriate to their skills and interests. Camps are suitable for:

• Children with little or no prior coding experience who want to explore technology basics.

• Young learners with some technology experience seeking to deepen their skills.

• Teens interested in creative technology applications such as game design, digital modelling, and web creation.

• Students wanting a structured, project-based learning environment during school holidays.

The inclusive design of the camps allows learners to participate at their own pace while benefiting from structured instruction and collaborative learning.

Benefits of Participation

Participation in CIY.Club Holiday Camps provides several educational and developmental benefits. Through hands-on technology projects, participants learn foundational coding, design, and digital creation skills that support future academic or career pathways. The camps build:

• Digital literacy and comfort with technology tools.

• Problem-solving skills through iterative project work.

• Creativity and design thinking through open-ended project tasks.

• Confidence using technology in productive and creative ways.

• Collaboration and communication skills through group activities and peer interaction.

Additionally, completing projects that can be taken home encourages continued exploration and reinforces learning after the camp ends.

Typical Camp Pricing

Camp pricing varies by theme, duration, and location. In previous programmes, some holiday tech camps have been priced around RM 388 for a 2-day coding and design camp, which often included meals. Pricing for full-day, single-day, or multi-day holiday camps can vary depending on the focus and length of the programme.

Conclusion

CIY.Club Holiday Camps offer a structured, technology-enriched learning experience for children and teenagers during school holidays. With a focus on coding, digital design, and future-oriented technology skills, the camps encourage learners to become confident creators, problem solvers, and lifelong learners. Through immersive project work, supportive instruction, collaborative activities, and practical take-home projects, participants gain foundational skills that prepare them for the digital challenges of tomorrow.
