Wednesday 16th & 23rd September

Students were awarded certificates and membership cards for their efforts for participating and completing a coding course. Adam Mcdonald Shergold was the winner of a OzoBot robot.

We were fortunate enough to welcome Mr Leung-Yid, who has joined the club as a mentor to the students. He is able to provide students of industry experience as a software engineer.

Great to welcome our new members from Primary, Aubrey and Nola.

First Virtual coding class at Papakura High School

Kia ora Koutou, We have been continuing to run the Papakura High Code Club virtually. Unfortunately I was unable to send out all the invitations to all the students who have been attending. We are treading on new ground and the positives for the lock-down create opportunity! We had some students attend this week and with the support of Code Club staff Siobhan O'connor we came up with a plan: The first thing we did was assign all code club members to Grok Learning a 'Space Invaders' game. If you attend the club next week I will be able to sign you up! Also we thought about creating a blog dedicated to the club and here it is! We are hoping to source merchandise from Code Club and present to members who complete the projects we set, together with a Code Club certificate. Some of these prizes are T-shirts and key-rings from the official Code Club Aotearoa - watch this space. Looking forward to seeing you next week. Satchet Singh
