Hour of Code

Today we did Hour of Code. It is a fun coding simulator. We learnt how to move animals and stuff to get to the right places. The levels get harder and harder. There are ages for each theme. You can learn how to programme video games.  Some of the games are Star Wars, Minecraft, Angry Birds, Flappy Bird and Frozen.

Hack Miramar and Wellington Makerspace Trust are teaming up to put on a series of free one hour workshops that give everyone the chance to learn an 'Hour of Code'. It's all happening from 10am on December 13th 2014
at Scots College in Wellington.

These sessions are suitable for ages 4 to 104, so don't just bring the kids, give it a go yourself. The sessions can cater for complete beginners through to the slightly more adventurous.

This event is being run here in Wellington as part of a global series of events put on by volunteers and educators around the world during "Computer Science Education Week". Participants will have the opportunity to take part in sessions that start each hour, learning some aspects of programming as well as electronics and general technology concepts in just 60 minutes.
