Harrow Code Club - Scratch 101 & Python 101

8 February 2026, 11:30 - 13:00

12 tickets remaining

Details

🧠 Python 101
We will be introducing Python using Hedy (https://www.hedy.org), which teaches Python in a structured, gradual, and very readable way. Hedy allows children to start with simple, English-like instructions and slowly move toward real Python syntax.

Hedy includes two modes:
• Learning mode – children follow guided activities step by step
• Teaching/coaching mode – useful if parents would like to see what we’re covering

You are very welcome to explore it with your child at home as well.

🎨 Scratch 101 (Younger learners)
For our younger students, we will start with Scratch 101 using the fun “Space Talk” project from Raspberry Pi:
https://projects.raspberrypi.org/en/projects/space-talk

They will create animated characters that talk in space, helping them learn basic coding ideas like sequences and events in a playful way.

💻 What to bring
• A charged laptop or tablet
• A parent or guardian for children under 13
• Lots of curiosity and enthusiasm!

If your child is unable to attend today, just let us know — otherwise, we look forward to seeing you later.

  • All attendees must have an adult with them
  • Remember to bring your laptop with you
  • You must book a place to attend
  • Please don’t come if you are feeling unwell
  • We’ll be exploring Python 101 and Scratch 101
