AI Workshops Kids (Primary, ~8–12) in Singapore

In Singapore, our 4 workshops for Kids (Primary, ~8–12) are “AI Explorers: Safe & Smart AI”, “Create with AI”, “Code Your First Game or App with AI” and “AI for School Projects (the honest way)”. They are built for primary-school children aged about 8 to 12: every session is instructor-led and supervised, and we confirm parental consent first. Sessions run in small groups at our Bishan and Woodlands centres or live online. Each workshop is 2 hours and costs $208, with a lower price per workshop when you book more than one. Whether you call it an AI class, an AI course, AI training or a workshop, it is the same hands-on, small-group session — in Bishan and Woodlands, or online. You can take a level-based workshop below, or ask to learn a specific AI tool.

Every workshop ends with something you made yourself — a project, tool or site you keep.

Frequently Asked Questions

7 questions

Yes. Workshops are instructor-led and supervised, using teacher-driven or kid-safe accounts, with parental consent. Children learn about and with AI under guidance — they do not create their own adult tool accounts. We emphasise safe, critical, honest use throughout.

Each workshop is 2 hours and costs $208. Booking more than one is cheaper per workshop: $198 each for 2, $188 each for 3, and $178 each for 4 or more.

No — and for ChatGPT that is a rule, not just convenience. OpenAI sets a minimum age of 13, so a child of 8–12 cannot hold a ChatGPT account at all: in the parts of a session that use it, the instructor runs ChatGPT live on our own account while your child follows along and says what to try, without typing into or operating the account. Google Gemini is the tool your child uses hands-on, through a parent-managed Google account (Family Link) — the one route built for under-13s. Nothing is bought and no card is needed. Coding tools that require users to be 18 or older are taught in our student and professional workshops, not the children’s ones.

Both. In-person workshops run at our Bishan and Woodlands centres; online workshops run live over video. You choose the format when you enquire.

Yes — you receive an Ancourage Academy Certificate of Completion at the end of the workshop. It is issued by us as an independent provider; we do not issue vendor certificates (for example from OpenAI, Anthropic, Microsoft or Google).

No subscription is required to take part. Most tools we teach have capable free versions, and we show you what the free and paid tiers each do so you can decide what is worth paying for. Bring a laptop if you can — workshop fees are separate from any tool subscription.

The AI tools we teach set their own minimum ages — most require you to be at least 13, some require 18, and under-18s generally need a parent or guardian’s permission. Adults use their own accounts. For under-18s, sessions are instructor-led and supervised, and we confirm parental consent before the session. Where a tool sets an 18+ minimum — Claude and Claude Code do, and Anthropic’s terms have no parental-consent route — your child neither opens nor operates an account: the instructor runs it live on our own account and your child follows along, doing their own hands-on work on tools they are eligible for.
