Hi All,

I remember people talking about teaching kids coding (primary/secondary level) after our first PyCon Ireland in 2010.

Since then, many of you probably have heard of the wonderful job Coder Dojo have been doing the past year all over the country for many kids.

The Dublin one is even looking for expansion, but there's one thing they are short of, mentors. 

I noticed someone was teaching game programming using Python. :-)

For others who are interested, please check out their thread on about it:- 

Cheers,

/// Vicky

Hello,

I'm the guy who is running the Intro to Game Programming with Python for the CoderDojo Dublin. We're in the process of developing a 5 - 8 week fixed duration course based on Invent Your Own Computer Games with Python from http://inventwithpython.com/. Our Dojo is 3 hours each Saturday at the Science Gallery.
