You’re invited to join the Girls Who Code* movement! Girls Who Code Clubs are spaces where students can join a group of supportive peers and use computer science to change the world. Our 3rd-5th Grade Club will learn how to code by completing fun and simple online coding tutorials and building community through interactive club activities.

The Berlin-Peck Memorial Library Girls Who Code Club is completely free to join! You do NOT need to be a Berlin resident to participate!

Our Club will meet roughly every other week from 4:30 PM to 5:30 PM. Meeting dates are: 10/18; 11/1; 11/15; 11/29; 12/13; 1/3; 1/17; 1/31; 2/14; and 2/28. Registration is required; registering once will enroll you in all 10 sessions (it's OK to miss a few, but please come to as many as possible).
