August 7, 2017<\/strong><\/p>\n

Coding and robotics workshops will be held this week for South Burnett children, parents, teachers and librarians as part of a statewide strategy to encourage more young people to study science and technology at school.<\/p>\n

Science Minister Leeanne Enoch said the workshops aimed to prepare students for the jobs of the future and develop their skills in critical thinking, creativity, collaboration and innovation.<\/p>\n

Coding Kids received an Advance Queensland Engaging Science grant of almost $10,000 to fund workshops at St Mary\u2019s Catholic College, Kingaroy; St Patrick\u2019s Primary School, Nanango; and Kingaroy State High School.<\/p>\n

Emily de la Pena, from Coding Kids, will be running the workshops from August 8\u201310.<\/p>\n

\u201cCoding is a force for change in this world and I am really looking forward to showing young children that they too can create digital solutions for the community, as well as help teachers integrate these digital technologies into the classroom,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
