What's new?

This year we are excited to launch the programme with a brand new curriculum and two exciting challenges:

App Design Challenge:

Led by Crescent Girls' School (CGS), this challenge focuses on design thinking and basic coding with Swift Playgrounds on the iPad. Participants will create innovative and user-friendly apps that solve real-world problems.

App Development Challenge:

Headed by School of Science and Technology (SST), Singapore, this challenge dives deeper into the technical aspects of app development. Participants will build utility apps with cutting-edge technologies like Augmeneted Reality (AR) and Machine Learning (Core ML) all with Swift Playground on the iPad.

[NEW] World Building Challenge:

Also led by SST, this challenge provides a gentle introduction to coding. Participants will explore their creativity and build landscapes inspired by SG60 with Byte and friends on Swift Playground.

The experience culminates in a Celebration event in Aug 2025 at Crescent Girls' School. Here, you'll:
