Testing charging on our custom Sphero BOLT cases before we send them off to IMDA and MOE for the national Code For Fun programme! Designed and built in-house by Yixue, our very own maker-in-residence, to store, transport, and charge 42 BOLT devices at once.

Our cardboard T Krobot — dormant since 2019, revived recently by talented young maker interns — is now back and greeting* visitors to the second floor of our office!

* Or scaring them off with flashing lights and nerf guns? We can’t tell

Thanks Apple and Crescent Girls’ School for the chance to work together on Swift Explorers this year! Through the year, we had a chance to explore coding and design with #SwiftPlaygrounds on iPad to hundreds of students from dozens of schools. Congrats to all students!

Congratulations to the first graduating class of Swift Explorers Singapore! Students in the program learned the basics of coding and developed creative apps that solve issues they’re passionate about — from helping people care for their families to improving mental wellness.
