Robotics, coding and 3D printing in Walsall
Give your child a holiday to remember at IKEA Wednesbury. Every day is hands on: they build robots, code their own games, design 3D prints and take home what they make. Sessions run in small groups by age, led by DBS checked mentors who love this stuff as much as the kids do.
Everything is included, from laptops to robot kits, so they just turn up and create. You pick the exact days that suit your family, and free HAF funded places are available for eligible children. Places are capped at 35 children a day, so the group stays small and every child gets real attention.
HAF places at this venue must be booked through the council portal.

Every camp runs robotics and coding. Some activities, like 3D printing and arcade builds, vary by venue and depend on the equipment on site.
Robotics
Build, program and battle autonomous robots using competition-grade kits. From sensor arrays to motor control, Robocoders learn real engineering.

Sketch it, model it, print it, take it home. Robocoders design in CAD software and watch their creations come to life on our Bambu Lab printers.
