In this workshop we'll make a hands on Scissors Paper Rock game using Python! Play against your friends, or find out if you can beat a computer in this awesome project!

Students don’t need to have any programming experience to come along, we’ve got something for high school girls of all levels. We’ll cover the basics if you’re new to Python and show you some extra cool stuff if you’re already a programming pro!

Lunch and snacks will be provided for students.

Please use this Humanitix site to sign up!

Please let us know as soon as possible if you can no longer attend so don't over cater and can offer your place to another student.

What should students bring to GPN?

Students need to bring their own laptop. We have some laptops available if a student cannot bring one.

We only have a limited number of spare laptops, to please bring a laptop if you can.

We will provide everything else that students need including paper, pens and food. We will have plastic cups but a water bottle is a good idea and there will be places to fill up water bottles at the event.
