In this workshop, we'll be making a Secret Diary Chatbot. We will teach the computer to help us write and read from a diary and protect it with a password and other fun tricks! 💚

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, snacks and computers will be provided for students.

Please use this Humanitix site to sign up!

Also, we always have a long waiting list for GPN, so if you have registered but are no longer able to attend please let us know as soon as possible so we can offer your place to another student.
