Vibe coding and AI agents classes in Camberwell

What should Camberwell learners expect from vibe coding and AI agents classes?

Learners build small programs and agents with an AI, then write tests that catch the agent when it guesses. Camberwell suits it: in the 2021 Census, 52.2% of adults held a bachelor degree or higher, against 29.2% across Victoria, and 7.0% of the 21,965 residents were aged 15 to 19.

Ask an assistant how many people used Camberwell station "last financial year" and it has to know three things: today's date, that Australian financial years end on 30 June, and which years have actually been published. Get any one of them wrong and it either answers about the wrong year or quietly answers nothing at all.

Facts last verified 10 October 2026. Teaching is online; no Camberwell branch is claimed.

Five stations

The suburb holds five metropolitan stations: Camberwell, East Camberwell, Riversdale, Willison and Hartwell.

Lockdown day

The Census was taken in the August 2021 lockdown, when 4,840 employed residents, 43.9%, worked from home.

Area

The bureau puts the suburb at 7.59 square kilometres, inside the City of Boroondara.

QuickStats perturbs small counts to protect privacy, so the parts of a table need not match its total. We give each figure exactly as published and do not add rows together.

Signature project

What does an agent mean by last financial year?

We wrote 12 everyday ways of naming a year, from "FY23" to "the year to June 2024", and two small resolvers that turn each phrase into one of the seven published station files for Camberwell. Today, for the test, is 10 October 2026.

Camberwell station entries by financial year (Department of Transport and Planning, rounded to 50)

Close but wrong

For "the year to June 2024" the naive resolver read FY24-25 and reported 1,260,400. The right file, FY23-24, says 1,241,500: only 1.5% apart, which is why nobody would notice.

Silent gaps

Asked about "last financial year", the naive resolver looked for FY25-26, found no file and returned nothing. The grounded one said FY25-26 is not published yet and the newest year is FY24-25.

Asking back

For "last year" and "in 2024" the grounded resolver asked which financial year was meant, because each calendar year straddles two of them.

Where the simple version is fine

When the question already names the year in the file's own style, "2023-24", both resolvers answered correctly, and the naive one also got "two financial years ago" right. Plain lookup is enough when the wording matches the file; grounding earns its keep the moment people speak naturally.

The 12 phrases, both resolvers and the scores are ours. They describe our own scripts, not how any particular assistant behaves. Station figures are the publisher's estimates, quoted unchanged.

The agent behind it

Three facts an agent must hold before it touches a date

Grounding means tying a vague phrase to something the program actually knows. For dates, that is a short list.

What the grounded resolver checks
FactValue in our testMistake it prevents
Today10 October 2026, in FY 2026-27Treating the newest file as this year
How years are labelledAustralian financial years end 30 June; FY23 means the year to June 2023Reading FY23 as 2023-24
What existsFiles from FY18-19 to FY24-25Silently returning nothing for an unpublished year

The fix is small: hand the agent a tool that lists the available years and a rule for each phrase, and make it say so when a year is missing rather than answering about a different one. Most of the work is writing the 12 test phrases, because that is where the hidden assumptions show up.

Younger learners

Work out together which school term "next holidays" means on different days of the year.

Secondary students

Write both resolvers in Python, turn the 12 phrases into tests and fix each failure.

Adults

List the date phrases colleagues actually use in reports and test an assistant against them.

If an agent can look up the figure, why should a Camberwell learner care how it reads a date?

Because the agent will always produce a number, and only someone who has tested its reading of dates can say whether it is the number for the year that was asked about.

Our naive resolver never crashed. It answered five questions about the wrong year with figures that looked perfectly sensible, and five more with nothing, without saying anything was missing. A report built on it would read smoothly and be wrong.

A learner who has written the 12 phrases, watched FY23 turn into the wrong year and added the rule that fixed it carries that habit into every agent they build: ask what the program assumes about today, and test it.

The Camberwell learner who grounds an agent in the calendar is the one whose answers hold up next year too. The longer argument is in why teenagers should still learn to code in 2026.

FAQ

Camberwell vibe coding and AI agents questions

Common questions from Camberwell parents and adult learners.

How many people live in Camberwell?

The 2021 Census QuickStats for the Camberwell suburb record 21,965 residents and 5,875 families, with a median age of 43.

What does grounding mean for an AI agent?

Tying what the agent says to facts it can check, such as today's date or the list of files that exist, instead of letting it fill gaps with guesses.

What does FY23 mean in Australia?

The financial year ending 30 June 2023, so July 2022 to June 2023. Our naive resolver read it as 2023-24, one of its five wrong-year answers.

What did the Camberwell dates project find?

On our 12 phrases, a resolver doing plain calendar arithmetic got 2 right; one that knew financial years, today's date and the published files got all 12 right, including two where it asked a question back.

What is vibe coding?

Describing a program in ordinary words, letting an AI write a first draft, then testing and fixing it. In our classes the testing takes most of the time.

Is Copilot Studio included in group classes?

No. Microsoft Copilot Studio is taught only in private lessons; group classes build agents in Python.

Do you have a Camberwell classroom?

No. Lessons are only live online, there is no office in Australia, and the phone number we show is Indian.

What do classes cost for Camberwell learners?

The first lesson is free. Group classes then cost USD 100 a month for two live lessons a week, about eight a month, with fifteen to twenty learners, or USD 150 a month one to one. Course, format and time are agreed before payment.

How many learners share a group?

Fifteen to twenty, grouped by level, pace and goals; one-to-one lessons are there when no group time works.

Can adults join agents classes?

Yes. Adults learn in adult groups or privately, often bringing a reporting task they would like an agent to handle reliably.
