Thomas Moore, Curriculum Manager for Computing and I.T. at NWRC, said this is a fantastic opportunity for young people in the North West to become code warriors.

He added: “As well as code breaking, our code warriors will create their own Scratch game and compete against their friends on the Raspberry Pi, control robot racing cars, build and fly a drone, plus competitions and prizes.”

The Camp takes place on July 9 - 11. £20 per child. To book www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/coding-for-kids-summer-it-camp-tickets-47081512070
