Peter Johnson teaches this subject weekly for students from Grades P-6. In addition senior students are invited to participate in extension activities involving concepts such as basic programming or ‘coding.’

Included within the program is a special component of Media Arts. Its purpose is to teach students the process of producing digital imagery in the form of photography or movie making. It is celebrated with an annual event called The MEPS Media Festival. In 2025 the MEPS Media Festival was held at the Mooroolbark Community Centre.
