What happens at CoderDojo Kichijoji?

Children (called "ninjas" at CoderDojo) create and present their own projects.
They use various tools like Scratch to make games, quizzes, animations, art, music, and more.
They also do 3D modeling with Tinkercad (printable with a 3D printer), electronics with micro:bit, and collaborative Minecraft projects.

CoderDojo Kichijoji is a community.
There is no fixed curriculum; participants choose what they want to work on and do it independently.
Mentors and senior ninjas are available for support, so please ask if you have questions or problems.
Sharing your projects, working together, and seeing what others create is highly encouraged!

Please visit the official website for details.
Recent activities are reported in a Note magazine.
