For young makers · Ages 6–18

Aerospace 3D CAD, Avionics Circuits
& Codeblocks

Practical, hands-on skills for young makers. Learners design in CAD, code real programs, and 3D print projects they take home.

Our Mission

To equip children aged 6–18 with practical, hands-on skills in Aerospace 3D CAD, Avionics Circuits and Codeblocks, building the creative thinking and problem-solving mindset they need to design, build and innovate in the real world.

Our Vision

A generation of young Africans who can design, build and innovate with confidence, unlocking their potential and helping to shape the continent’s future through technology and engineering.

What we teach

Three disciplines, one hands-on journey

Our curriculum is built around three core disciplines, using the same industry-standard tools practising engineers rely on.

01

Aerospace 3D CAD

Learners model drones, spaceships and aircraft in 3D CAD software, building spatial thinking and design precision, from as young as six.

02

Avionics Circuits

Learners wire and program real aircraft systems, from navigation lights to landing gear, with sensors, motors and microcontrollers, learning engineering logic through teamwork.

Playful hands-on materials learners use while coding
03

Codeblocks

Learners write block-based code that builds rockets, satellites and launch towers, using loops, variables and maths to become technology creators rather than passive consumers.

What we run

Year-round ways to start and keep building

School clubs Holiday bootcamps Weekend workshops Take-home 3D prints

School clubs

Weekly in-school Aerospace 3D CAD, Avionics Circuits and Codeblocks sessions built into the school week.

Holiday bootcamps

Intensive builds at Pearl Labs and the National ICT Hub during school holidays.

Weekend workshops

Short, project-based classes for beginners and returning learners.

Take-home 3D prints

Every learner goes home with a printed piece of their own work.

Our impact

Building skills that build Uganda’s future

By giving children hands-on, industry-relevant STEM skills, and actively welcoming girls into technology, our work supports five United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

SDG 4 · Quality Education SDG 5 · Gender Equality SDG 8 · Decent Work & Growth SDG 9 · Industry & Innovation SDG 10 · Reduced Inequalities
