Hi Simran, It would be a good idea to investigate Code Club Australia ( http://www.codeclubau.org/) and Code the Future (http://www.codefuture.org) - which provide resources and a network of developers who can help to get it started. You can also search for CoderDojo's in the area (particularly Brisbane, or WA).
A quick plug as well - if you are a developer with some spare time, consider volunteering at Code the Future too! :) Cheers, Nigel *Dr Nigel Sheridan-Smith PhD* / Principal *Green Shores Digital* [image: Twitter] <https://twitter.com/GreenShoresAU>[image: Linkedin] <http://au.linkedin.com/in/nsheridansmith> *M*: +61 403 930 963 *E*: ni...@greenshoresdigital.com *W*: http://www.greenshoresdigital.com On Tue, Feb 2, 2016 at 8:15 PM, Dylan Jay <d...@pretaweb.com> wrote: > > > On 2 Feb 2016, at 2:10 PM, simran <simrangamb...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > Hi All, > > > > My kids primary school teacher this afternoon spoke to me about wanting > to introduce coding for the school (she's the person the principal looks to > for recommendation on tech; and she's very tech savvy). > > > > She was a little stuck on where to start though...
