    Brilliant – thanks for the replies. I’m going to check my diary but I hope that we’ll be able to get down on Saturday. The Geek Cadet programming club looks like just what I was looking for.

    Hi there Grace, Jag pointed out your posting to me.. I don’t tend to hang out on the GGA group too often.. it’s kinda difficult for me to respond here, but if you want to discuss this from a generic kids-coding / pedagogical perspective, ping a message over at http://thegisthub.net/groups/geek-cadets/. Apols if you were after [...]

    My daughter (nearly 13) is fascinated by the idea of a Raspberry Pi.
