In the coming Halloween, The Arcade ‘STEM Academy’ will break the tradition of trick-or-treating, pumpkins, candies and spiders, and instead will introduce children into a digital world, where they can apply imagination with logic, and celebrate Halloween like they have never before.
Following the ‘Moon Rover Challenge’, The Arcade will team up with Moinàrchy, Children’s Science Academy, and host the ‘Halloween Fun Digital Workshop’ on 30th of October. Combining art and technology, it aims to inspire children to use their imagination and build their own Halloween robot. Furthermore, the workshop will also feature the ‘Myth & Tricks’, where teachers will unveil their mathematical secrets by teaching children a fun way of learning math. If the children managed to pass the 30 minutes test, they’ll even receive an assessment chart, paving the way for future studying. Moreover, an interactive zone will also be included, where through augmented reality (AR) and hologram technologies, can transport you to a secret village, and tackle the many challenges presented to you.
