The future is digital—and it begins now.

Tailored for students and teenagers aged 12 to 15, the Holiday Edition builds on the successes of the 2024/2025 second academic term rollout. It offers a dynamic, hands-on learning experience that sparks curiosity and fosters creativity through coding, digital literacy, innovation thinking, and problem-solving—all in a fun and engaging environment.

This impactful initiative is proudly championed by the Kwara State Government under the visionary leadership of His Excellency, Mallam AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq.
