Drones & Super Science Explorers
Scratch Coding & AI Literacy Camp Vancouver
Date: August 10 - August 14
A Hands-On Drone Programming Camp Where Kids Code, Fly, and Run a Real Science Mission
+ Early Exposure to Coding and Robotics
+ Hands-On Learning
+ STEAM Education Enhancement
+ Real-World Problem Solving
-
Children learn the physics of flight through paper airplane experiments, explore how drones are used in science missions, and begin an AI observation log.
-
Teams write their mission brief, map out their flight path, practice Tello drone commands, and run their first test sequence.
-
After a pre-flight safety brief, children code the full flight path, set up the floor grid, place data cards at waypoints, and run adjustment tests.
-
The full mission is run and tested — children conduct a pre-mission final check, execute the live mission run, and analyze their field report data.
-
Drone Live Show — children peer-review each other's field reports, present their mission findings, and celebrate with a Report Showcase and Certificate Ceremony.
About the Activities
Our drone camp in Vancouver is where STEM stops being theoretical and becomes something children can program, launch, and watch work in real time. The week opens with the physics of flight — lift, drag, thrust — made visible through paper airplane experiments. Then children move to Tello drones, learning command sequences, mapping flight paths on a floor grid, placing data cards at waypoints, and running a fully coded mission by mid-week.
This drone coding camp for children in BC is methodical and exciting in equal measure. Friday is the Drone Live Show: a field report showcase where children present their mission data, walk through their flight path decisions, and receive their certificates.
This is a flight science camp for kids who want to understand why before they try. The science is real. The drones are real. And the feeling when the mission runs exactly as coded? That's real too.
