Future Stars Minecraft Camps are a fun and engaging way for children and teens to learn coding, design, and programming using a platform they already love. Minecraft is increasingly used as an educational tool, and these camps taps into their creative power to help campers learn more effectively through hands-on exploration.

Minecraft Modding campers learn the basics and advance to building more structured and interactive programs. From simple scripts to multi-file projects, campers gain real programming skills while bringing their Minecraft visions to life.

Minecraft & Roblox Developers campers learn coding, game development, build upon block-based programming skills, and progress toward more advanced concepts, including JavaScript and other programming languages.

Each week features new projects, cooperative challenges, and friendly competitions. Programs take place in classrooms and computer labs with all necessary equipment provided.

All campers are grouped according to age and ability.
