Learn to code at Hucclecote Library. Take your first steps into coding as you explore the world of coding languages all at your own pace, with the support of our friendly volunteers. Progress through step-by-step projects & create games and animations using programs like Scratch. 

Suitable for children aged 7 - 14 years.

Children must be accompanied by an adult. Please only book a space for the number of children wanting to take part.

If you suddenly can't make it, please cancel your space so another child can attend as there is limited availability.

Join us in developing a Tabletop Game Session from scratch in this 4-week workshop. Pick your favourite rules system, and bring some plot hooks, as we delve into the practical tools and digital wizardry that you can use to bring your game to life!

This will start with an example of playing a short round with traditional mediums and take it apart to figure out what is required to build on this digitally, then move through that process with the support of our friendly Lab Tech.

We'll look at how to source and create assets, what kind of resources are available to you and your players, and how everything can fit together to create fun and memorable experiences.

By the end of the workshop, you'll have created an encounter that you could run as a Game Master for your friends, and will have the tools you need to develop it further!

Please note, spaces are limited so please book to confirm your place.

Suitable for people aged 16+
