Code Ninjas, the nation’s largest and fastest-growing kids coding franchise, has brought its innovative approach to STEM education to Woodbridge, with a brand-new centre opening. Located at 6175 Highway 7 – Unit 3B, the new dojo will encourage children ages 5–14 to learn computer coding, robotics, and problem-solving STEM skills by building their own video games in a fun, inspiring, and family-friendly environment.
Empowering future innovators
Code Ninjas’ curriculum makes STEM accessible and engaging by turning learning into play. Students progress through a structured, martial-arts-inspired program that guides them through nine belt levels, from white to black. Along the way, they learn coding, robotics, and game development with the support of trained instructors known as Code Senseis. Milestones are celebrated through “Belt-Up” ceremonies, keeping kids motivated while reinforcing skills. By the time they complete the program, every student will have designed and published their own app.
In addition to weekly drop-in sessions, Code Ninjas Woodbridge will offer camps, workshops, and popular Parents Night Out events, giving families flexible opportunities to fit STEM learning into their schedules.
Meet the local owners:
The Woodbridge location is owned and operated by Maximus and Siva. Previous to this endeavor, they worked with children in a separate business, teaching them Jiu Jitsu. Their experience highlighted the connection between sports and self-defence, sparking an interest in exploring other ways they could teach children valuable skills. When they discovered Code Ninjas and considered Maximus’ background in coding, they saw this as a perfect opportunity to combine their interests and take on a new challenge.
“Were hoping to be a facility that can support future generations in an inclusive environment,” said Maximus. “Children in this community who have an interest in STEM will not be neglected and will have everything they need to follow their passions, and we’ll be there to support them every step of the way.”
