“The lessons were so easy to follow and to teach to the kids. It was so useful to have something laid out in very specific details. It was also very interactive and offered lots of variety.”
“It was definitely a confidence booster and feel good program. It’s important to have experience that’s extracurricular outside of high school or university. The biggest incentive was being able to learn how to teach kids and have that experience first hand.”
“When you come into traditional schooling you have to teach things like scratch or block based programming languages. Code Club has resources for that!”
“You’re scared at the beginning but, when they’re kids, they love you no matter what. It really helps in boosting your energy and confidence!”

We make starting a new club easy! We provide step-by-step guidance for setup, ensure safeguarding certification, and equip you with the training and tools needed to successfully promote and lead your club.
Our projects offer step-by-step guides that help kids learn Scratch, HTML, CSS, Python, and more. They're easy to follow, requiring no prior knowledge from the child or volunteer. Coding concepts are introduced gradually, supporting progressive skill-building.
We believe in the power of community! In addition to support and group training sessions, we host regular meetups where connect, share insights, and learn from one another.
