About this event
Introduction to Pygame - 5-day Course for students interested to make games with Python
INTRODUCTION TO PYGAME
Prerequisites: Completed Principles 3 / Junior Python 3 and proficient in Python Lists and For-Loops (If unsure, please contact for an assessment!)
Having been introduced to a data structure, lists, in Principles 3, students will embark on the creation of their first video game in Python using Pygame. The understanding that the components in video games are just complex data structures will open a realm of new possibilities, as they manipulate the data structures in Pygame to solve their game requirements.
Code Campers will learn about the tools that Pygame has to offer in a visual and engaging course, one step up from the largely text-based content they have encountered in their introduction to Python.
*Pygame is a lightweight albeit powerful Python game engine that allows students to build and examine the internal workings of some of their favourite video games.
Course Schedule
This is an 5-lesson course. Lessons will be conducted online from 29 Nov-3 Dec 2.00-4.00pm.

School Policies
We can't wait to welcome you on Campus! Before you arrive, here are some of our Campus policies that you need to be aware of.
MINIMUM CLASS SIZE
Please note that we require a minimum of 3 Code Campers to start a class. You will be fully refunded if the class minimum is not fulfilled.
MISSED CLASSES AND MAKE-UP CLASSES
SG Code Campus offers structured and outcome-driven courses to equip our Code Campers with the necessary programming proficiencies to progress through our learning roadmap. Full attendance for each course is important to ensure that students are able to progress smoothly in their learning journey.
For a missed lesson, the student will receive a video link to the lesson missed that will expire in two weeks, as well as any necessary materials used in class. Subject to the availability of the instructor, a 15-min consultation can be arranged after the student has covered the video and attempted any necessary exercises to clarify any student doubts.
CANCELLATIONS & REFUNDS
We strive to maintain a low instructor-to-student ratio for our courses to maximise the learning experience. Hence, seats are limited and we greatly value each and every seat that we offer. If you cancel your registration for any of our courses for any reason whatsoever, the following refund policy applies:
- 100% full refund if written notice of any cancellation is received by us at least 14 days before the start date of the course.
- 100% credit refund if written notice of any cancellation is received by us at least 7 days before the start date of the course.
- No refund will be given if written notice of any cancellation is received by us less than 7 days before the start date of the course.
There will not be any refund or credit offered for physical classes that need to move online. We have continuously honed our conduct of online classes, and are confident that our online classes will still deliver a fruitful learning experience for the kids.
Please note that credit refunds are valid for 12 months from the date of issue, and can be applied to any other SG Code Campus course (subject to availability) within the validity period. If a course of a lower value is selected as a replacement, no refund of the difference in course fees will be given.
WHAT TO BRING
We provide all necessary equipment for students in the classroom, including a Macbook and other hardware devices where applicable. Your child should bring a water bottle and a jacket, as it can get cold in some of our classrooms.
