In this workshop, we’ll be using Block Coding to make a morse code translator! Then we'll use computing and cryptography concepts to decode secret emoji messages!

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

Morning tea and computers will be provided for students.
