School holidays are more than a break from school — they are an opportunity for children to explore new interests, develop skills and discover what they can create.


At LYZA Education, our holiday programmes combine engaging activities with hands-on learning, helping children make their screen time more productive. Here are three ways your child can learn, create and challenge themselves during the holidays.



1. Learn a New Coding Language

Has your child been curious about coding but never had the chance to try it? The school holidays are a great time to get started.


LYZA Education’s beginner holiday camps introduce children to coding through guided activities and practical projects. From creating games and animations with Scratch to exploring Python or building mobile apps, students can discover coding at a level suited to their age and experience.

Along the way, they develop logical thinking and problem-solving skills while learning to use technology to bring their ideas to life.


2. Turn Minecraft into a Creative Coding Experience

For children who love Minecraft, there is more to explore than playing the game. With LYZA Education’s Minecraft coding camps, students can design their own farms, automate tasks and create exciting mini-games.

Using Minecraft Education and block-based coding, they learn how programming instructions can shape their virtual worlds. Concepts such as loops, variables and coordinates become easier to understand when children can see their code in action.

It is an engaging way to combine a familiar game with creativity, logical thinking and hands-on coding.


3. Take on a New Challenge through the LSC Competition

For children who already enjoy coding, the LSC Challenge, a coding competition for kids in Singapore, offers an opportunity to apply their skills beyond the classroom.


Designed for students aged 7–12, LSC encourages participants to develop their own digital projects through age-appropriate Scratch and Python tracks. Students can explore ideas, solve problems and challenge themselves to create something they are proud to share.

Beyond the competition itself, the experience encourages creativity, perseverance and the confidence to take their coding skills further.
