School holidays: Creative Coding 2 - Imagination Lab 8-12yrs

Creative Coding is a great way to introduce your kids to fundamental coding skills, where the goal is to make something expressive rather than functional. In this intermediate workshop, participants will learn how to design their own code art using number lines and use the magic of code to create a printable artwork they can take home. *Please note: This workshop is part 2 in our Creative Coding for kids workshop series. It is strongly advised that students complete Creative Coding 1: Code and create 8-12yrs before joining this workshop. What you’ll learn: Our experienced facilitator Jared Berghold will guide you through coding to make your very own computer-generated artwork!
