About this event
Koala Koders offers an introduction to coding for children in Grades 3–4 over four Thursdays: October 8, 15, 22, and 29. Students will learn programming basics through simple block-based coding and hands-on projects using the micro:bit’s LED display, buttons, sensors, and more. No prior coding experience is required.
North Vancouver City Library is partnering with Koala Koders for this program. Founded in 2022, Koala Koders is a youth-led organization offering free coding, 3D design, and robotics programs in North Shore libraries.
