Code Club Australia

Over 2000 Code Clubs exist across Australia. Code Club creates projects for teachers and volunteers to teach their students the fundamentals of coding and digital technologies. The projects teach children how to program by allowing them to make computer games, animations and websites in a variety of technologies designed for kids age 8-15. A teacher can run their own Code Club by simply using these projects in their classroom. Alternatively, volunteers can team up with their local school or public venue for an hour a week as an after-school activity.
