School Holiday Coding Classes for Kids: Learn Python Programming | Epping North PS

Inspiring Kids to Learn to CodeCoding Workshops for Kids are passionate about introducing ‘computer programming’ to children to create empowered ‘coders’.Computer science is for everyone! Anyone can learn if they want to, and we like to facilitate workshop style experiences for everyone to have fun and learn the power of coding.Coding Workshops for Kids was started by a mum with two young kids, eager to introduce creative computing concepts to her own children but couldn’t find a workshop in her local area so she decided to set one up herself, and host coding sessions and make it accessible to the local community.Coding Founder & Facilitator - JennyFounder & Facilitator of Coding Workshops for KidsCSER (Computer Science Education Research) F- 6 Digital Technologies Curriculum Foundation CertificateM:0428 198 953E:info@codingworkshopsforkids.com.auW:codingworkshopsforkids.com.auF:LIKE ourFACEBOOK PageI:FOLLOW US onINSTAGRAMY:SUBSCRIBE to ourYOUTUBE

<H2>School Holiday Coding Classes: Learn Python Programming for Beginners | Ages 12 - 16 years+ | Epping North PS | 930am - 330pm | 13 July, Friday</H2>
Python is a simple, powerful programming language. It is used to run powerful apps like Gmail, Google Maps and YouTube.
<H3>Importance of Coding / Programming </H3>
Computer programming or coding is a crucial skill every child should be learning.
We use computers to solve problems, play games, help us to work more effectively, perform repetitive tasks, store and recall information, create something new, and connect with our friends and the world.
Understanding how to code is empowering!
Everyone can learn to code - it’s just like solving a puzzle or a riddle.
Learn to code like a real programmer using text-based language!

"My son just loves it!. These are a wonderful set of coding courses for kids. The children are challenged, learn the fundamentals of coding different platforms, come hom bubbling and wanting to do more away from class. The key part of any review is would he go again? Well, he's on his third course. Say no more!' - John, Parent

<H2>Why kids should learn to code</H2>
<H3>Coding is fun!</H3>
Technology is becoming a part of everyday life. Every company, organisation and cause can benefit from technology. There are apps to help you buy, give, join, play, volunteer, connect, share - just about anything you can imagine.
Instead of just playing games, get kids to make their own game. They can create their own phone app!
With coding, you can bring to an idea to life by programming it on a computer.
Every program, game, system or app you know was coded using the same programming building blocks like Python which you’ll learn.
When you program, you are taking an active role in technology - you’re not just having fun, you’re making something fun!
<H3>Coding is a Valuable Job Skill</H3>
Coding is the skill of the 21st century. Jobs today require more problem-solving ability than ever before, and more and more careers involve technology as an integral requirement.
People who can program - and thus solve problems quickly and effectively - are highly valued in today’s world, and they get to do interesting, fulfilling work.
If you can code, you can solve problems.
Problem solvers have the power to make the world a better place!
