What are Get with the Program's coding adventures all about?
Get with the Program's coding adventures are 'red letter day' events for schools and youth groups. We've developed a series of these fabulous coding adventures designed to inclusively inspire today's young people to become the tech innovators of the future.
How come schools can get a Moon Landing Coding Adventure for free?
Our Moon Landing Coding Adventure has been very kindly sponsored by The Department for Transport and the Civil Aviation Authority, via their 'Reach for the Sky' Challenge Fund. This means we have provided the adventure for free initially to for 5-8 year-olds until March 2026, and then from September 2026, we will deliver our new version to 5-11 year-olds!
What is 'Reach for the Sky'?
The 'Reach for the Sky Challenge Fund' is an initiative created by the Department for Transport and the Civil Aviation Authority, with the aim of inspiring young people, especially those from under-represented groups, into careers in aviation and aerospace.
The fund has provided a total of £750,000 to support outreach programmes and educational initiatives within schools and universities, building on the government’s promise to secure the long-term future of aviation and give young people the opportunities they deserve.

Schools/ youth groups get access to our Moon Landing Coding Adventure from the ages of 5 to 11 completely free of charge.
Our remotely delivered, interactive Moon Landing Coding Adventure includes a 25-minute show and two 45-minute follow-up activities, plus two additional worksheet-based activities designed to encourage understanding of careers in aerospace. One of the worksheet-based activities is designed to be done as homework.
Do I need to ask the school/group before nominating?
No - you let us know the details, and we will contact the school/group to gauge interest and find a suitable date.
What equipment do schools/groups need for our Moon Landing Coding Adventure?
We've designed this so schools/groups don't need lots of computers or equipment to take part. There's an unplugged activity which doesn't need any technology at all, and the online activity is optional. The two additional activities are printed worksheets.
For the online show: Schools/groups will need a computer with internet access and a screen so the children can watch the show together.
For the unplugged activity: Schools/groups will need a hall or communal space (indoors or outside), print-outs of the activity templates, whiteboards/paper and pens, and a way of setting out grids on the floor, (e.g. with chalk, tape or rubber mats).
For the online activity (optional): Schools/groups will need a computer or device with internet access for each child or pair of children.
For the worksheet activities: No special equipment required, just a printer.
