Code Club is an amazing opportunity for tamariki to learn basic programming in a fun, low pressure way. Don’t worry if you have no experience at all! If your tamaiti (child) can read at a comfortable level, they’ll be able to work through our modules.

We have sessions in both Rangiora Library and Oxford Library during term time.

Rangiora Library - Tuesday 3:30 - 4:30PM during school terms

Oxford Library - Wednesday 3:30 - 4:30PM during school terms

Children's University

Scratch is a visual programming language that allows tamariki to create interactive stories, games and animations. This programme is what is used in our Code Clubs and is generally the first stepping stone to computer science. There are three available activities below that tamariki can complete either at home or at one of our libraries' computers. Once they have completed it, let one of our librarians know and we will stamp off one hour of Code Club activity for your Children's University passport!
