Pora Ora has been developed by Caped Koala Studios; a social-networking, immersive-learning and entertainment company with a passion for creativity in education. The company is committed to developing a love of learning in young children; encouraging them to be creative, imaginative, inquisitive and social.

In Pora Ora, they have created an engaging world for children in the primary school age range (5 – 12) which presents educational content in a compelling and immersive way. They have constructed a fun, social and safe 3D environment where children are rewarded for participating in educational mini-games and quests. Rewards take the form of in-game currency which allows children to customise their avatar, decorate their home and garden, buy gifts to send to their friends and much more.

James Lane, Head of Educational Content for Caped Koala Studios, talks more about PoraOra during the London Silicon Roundabout May meetup.
