Apex , NC

CoderDojoApex NC is a volunteer-led digital making and coding club with a mission to inspire children to learn, make and express with technology. We meet every Saturday from 10:30a-12:30pm ET(regular session). We welcome children from ages 7-17 years old and all levels of coding experience from beginner to advanced.

Attending a session is free of charge, however signup is necessary. Register on the CoderDojo website to reserve your tickets and become a member of this community.

• What should my child expect at a Saturday session? Ninjas (our young members) will pick a project of their interest, learn and make with technology of their choice and present to other Ninjas during our sharing segment. We organize theme, project and workshop based monthly challenges, feature lightning talks by Ninjas and host month end celebrations. Your child will receive support from other Ninjas and volunteers facilitating the sessions.

• What should I bring to the session? All children should bring a wifi connected laptop or tablet with camera and be ready to be a fearless explorer.

• Is the adult required to attend a virtual? No, but we may need your help to get child(ren) set up and get ready for the virtual session. We always encourage parents to pair-program with their child or join us for our sharing segment on the Saturday session. We’re always looking for adult volunteers or tech mentors. Please contact our volunteer team by emailing us to get started.

• Does the child or adult volunteer need prior coding knowledge? No, prior coding experience is required.
