Description

Girls Who Code Club

Thursdays: September 19 & 26; October 3, 10, 17 & 24, 2024 • 4:00 pm

Girls Who Code is an international non-profit organization dedicated to closing the gender gap in technology. Girls Who Code Clubs are spaces where girls can join our sisterhood of supportive peers and use computer science to change the world. Grades 3-5 Clubs help build the foundational skills and understanding of computer science concepts and sisterhood through a reading discussion and coding activities. Practice new skills by completing fun and simple online coding tutorials and build community with the rest of your Club.

For girls in grades 3-5. Registration is required and is for ALL 6 weeks. Children attend independently. Parent or caregiver must remain in the Library during the event. Space is limited. Registration opens on Thursday, August 29.

Please note: Each club member will also need to register on Girls Who Code HQ—their official online platform—to enroll in Fairfield Public Library’s Girls Who Code Club. Club members will receive instructions on how to do this closer to the start date.

 

In order to provide the best learning environment for all participants, we are unable to allow access if you arrive 10 minutes after the program starts.
