CoderDojo is a global volunteer-let community of free programming clubs for young people between the ages of 7 and 17.

I am currently a mentor at CoderDojo Donabate which operates every second Saturday during the school year. At this dojo, I mentor young people who are learning to program using Scratch, HTML/CSS, Python and Java. I am currently preparing a series of sushi sheets for Raspberry Pi so that the ninjas in the dojo can also learn about computer hardware.
