Join us for Eccles CoderDojo. We'll be making music with Sonic Pi, using our artistic skills designing characters and animations in Scratch, being creative building interactive stories with Twine, getting physical lighting up BBC Microbits and developing our Python skills to make computer games and robots.
The event is super informal, it's up to you which activities to work on so feel free to come on your own or bring a friend. Under 12s will need to be accompanied by an adult.
We'll be gathering in the church hall (there will be signs) but as the event runs over lunch time you might want to bring a packed lunch to eat in the kitchen area. Alternatively, there are various butty shops within 5 minutes walk towards Eccles centre.
Equipment is provided but limited so if you can bring your own fully charge laptop or Raspberry Pi that would great. If bringing your own it would be advantageous to install some of the following programmes before you come as wifi will be stretched if everyone is downloading on the day:
Scratch - https://scratch.mit.edu/download
Sonic Pi - http://sonic-pi.net
Twine - http://twinery.org
Python - https://www.python.org
Microbit - https://makecode.microbit.org/offline
We usually start to pack down around 2.30pm. There is free parking on site and in the surrounding streets.
