Step inside SCRATCHPAD - and step into a world of limitless possibilities. A world where creativity has no boundaries and the present becomes the future.

SCRATCHPAD is an educational venture focused on helping youngsters (and the young at heart) to love, use, and create opportunities with technology - to help them develop skills that prepare them for the future and last a lifetime.

We believe children need to learn more than just how to use technology - they need to learn how to become creators of technology. SCRATCHPAD is the place where this creativity happens! SCRATCHPAD is an innovative space where children can become the innovators of tomorrow.
