Frequently Asked Questions
What time should we arrive?
Doors open at 8:55. We aim to be settled and ready to start by 9:15.
How long is the workshop?
Our Holiday Workshops run from 9am to 3:30pm. Our After-School Coding Clubs run between 3:30pm and 6:30pm on most Wednesdays and Thursdays. You can select either the full 3 hour slot or a 2 hour slot of your choosing between these times. (Attendance must be confirmed prior to the club)
Can my child bring their own Nintendo Switch?
Yes, and many do. To use it for the workshop you will need to purchase the FUZE4 Nintendo Switch software. This can be done on the day at a discounted rate. If you would rather not purchase the software we will provide a Switch for them to work on and they are welcome to use their own in the breaks. We cannot accept liability or responsibility for any devices brought into the workshops.
What is the age range of the workshops?
7 to 14. To keep our workshops relevant and engaging for all ages they are often separated loosely into beginner and advanced groups. Beginners and younger attendees are able to work through our projects at their own pace with help from our assistant tutors while those who have been numerous times are led through a more complex project together.
What payment methods are available and do you accept childcare (tax-free) vouchers?
Unfortunately we do not accept childcare vouchers. We may do so in the future, however it is not something we are looking at right now. We accept PayPal for workshop bookings.
How does the day look?
We tend to have a small break in the morning, an hour or so for lunch and another break in the afternoon. Often as we hit a natural end to a program at the end of the day we'll let the kids have one last go on the games before parents arrive.
How do we find you?
We're at Avon House which is a couple of buildings behind Thame Recipe on Wellington Street. Our front door is on the side facing away from the road. Once you're inside, head up the stairs to find The FUZE Centre!
Physical accessibility
The FUZE Centre is situated on the first floor and so has a flight of stairs to contend with. It is therefore, and very unfortunately, not wheelchair friendly. We're very sorry for this and will make every effort at the next location..
"Fuze has cultivated a love of coding in both of my children. Their approach is flexible and child centred. My 2 bright autistic kids have been accommodated and inspired and are now coding at home on their switches and can’t wait for their next Fuze day."

"My 9 year old son is crazy about computer games so it was great to have that enthusiasm channelled into a coding workshop. Fuze staff were friendly and engaging. He's very keen to go back!"
