Learning Computer Science skills opens the door to world-changing possibilities. From making something fun for yourself to helping people in need, what you learn could be the next best thing to having a super power.

What is it? Join us for a few afternoons in June to learn how to create video games using Touch Develop, a Microsoft program that will introduce you to the basics of coding.
