Code club for children
By joining Code Club, children will learn the basics of computer programming using Scratch, including how to create simple computer games and animations. Each Club runs as a structured course lasting for 20 weeks. Our Code Clubs are organised by Derby Libraries and sessions are run by trained volunteers and staff.
Children taking part must be aged from 8 to 13 years old at the start of the course and must be a member of Derby Libraries.
