Coding Workshop

When: Coding Workshop – Saturday, Oct 2nd, 2021.

We were blown away by the support and the great work of our partners at Siemens — all of the available spaces were filled up within 48 hours, and everyone had a blast!

Through this joined collaboration, we were pleased to see first-hand how learning about technology can be both fun and extremely useful to young minds.

We had 50+ participants within the Teens and Juniors categories.
74% of Teens found coding easier or as expected.
66.7% of Juniors found coding easier or as expected.

And let’s not forget the words from the students themselves when asked about their experience in the coding workshop:

“It was very exciting and I learned a lot. Python is a very simple programming language.”

“It was very cool and I learned a lot. We made great programming games. And I had a lot of fun.”

“It’s witty, it’s fun, you get to know cool things and it’s really interesting. In addition, the supervisors are nice and there are lots of sweet things ????????“
