About AI tool costs
Families are responsible for AI coding tool subscriptions or usage costs, which may be approximately NZ$20–100. These are separate from the NZ$360 course tuition and are paid out of pocket directly to tool providers such as Anthropic, OpenAI, and DeepSeek. Actual costs depend on the tools selected and usage.

LEARN BY BUILDING
What will students leave with?
Students follow a guided six-lesson project: a personal website, AI agent and automatic Radar. They personalize the content around their interests, learn by building, and finish by presenting a live product that keeps running.
A live personal website
A place for their profile, interests and projects, with a public link to share with family and friends.
An AI agent that takes action
Send it a project update. It identifies what matters, saves the information and updates projects and activity on the website.
An automatic Radar
It monitors chosen interests, filters out irrelevant or duplicate information and saves useful finds—even when their laptop is closed.
Their first Weekly post
The agent brings together project progress and Radar findings for a first weekly post. Students demonstrate the complete product at the end.
Skills they can use on their next project
- Build and edit websites with an AI coding assistant
- Save code with GitHub and publish it online
- Write AI instructions and connect databases and actions
- Automate tasks, test, debug and improve their work
