Summer Camps in Trichy: Children Engage in AI, Sports, and More
Tech-savvy kids in Tiruchy are not wasting their summer break lounging around – they are diving headfirst into the world of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Robotics through engaging summer camps held across the city. With schools not reopening until next month, children are taking advantage of the opportunity to pick up new skills and explore their interests in niche domains.
According to N S Ismail, the managing director of T4TEQ Software Solutions, basic coding camps are in high demand as children look to develop their skills beyond traditional education. “Nowadays degrees don’t suffice; more skills are required for employment. We are providing basic training for children so that they will have some understanding about coding. They can develop their skills in future upon this,” he explained.
But it’s not all about technology – outdoor sports camps are also drawing in young participants. Veeraragavan Ramachandran of Alchemy Sports Centre in Thiruvanaikoil noted that despite the heat, students are still eager to participate in sports activities, thanks to adjusted class timings.
For parents concerned about their children’s screen time, Technology Garage at Tennur offers a unique solution. “We want young technology enthusiasts to learn through gamified methodologies. Parents, who worry about their children’s increasing screen time, are seeing this as an alternative. Children can also develop their own VR games here, which will be a boost to their creative thinking. It is a win-win for both parents and kids,” said Logendhran AV.
The summer camps in Tiruchy are not just about learning – they are also about exploring new passions and interests. Trichy Plus, a training institute at Thillai Nagar, has blended educational activities with arts to provide children with a platform to discover new talents. Director S Savithri emphasized the importance of integrating educational elements with recreational activities to make the experience more engaging for children.
However, not all summer camps are optional. A Alan Prakash from Sindhu Bhairavi School of Fine Arts and Event Management raised concerns about some private schools requiring their students to attend their camps, limiting children’s exposure to diverse experiences and high-quality trainers.
Overall, the summer camps in Tiruchy are not only keeping children busy and engaged during their break but also helping them develop valuable skills and explore new interests in the ever-evolving world of technology and sports.
