Ultimo

Leap into physical computing with the simple yet powerful BBC micro:bit V2 pocket-sized computer. Explore block coding to automatically control LEDs, speakers, sensors and external devices including motors.

Computer code is like a language or set of instructions operating inside mobile phones, game controllers, Smart-TVs, opal cards, cars and traffic lights. Learning to program code is a fun and fascinating activity that can open up a world of creative opportunity for children.
