Vincent Massey Secondary School

Coding course for elementary school students
Every Thursday | 4:00 - 5:30
CodeReach helps create the foundation of computer science for students to prepare them for more complicated computer science classes in the future.
In an ever growing technology-driven world, we strive to prepare young minds in our community for what the future holds. Programming is a sought-after skill that, unfortunately, is not taught in elementary school. We hope that through programming, our students will be proactive when using computers and hopefully reach a point where they can make whatever they want.
We teach Python because its simple to learn and is one of the most popular programming languages in the world. Further into the course, we introduce students to basic graphics using the module, Pygame. Students will have the opportunity to learn how to create their own simple games.
At CodeReach, our instructors are highly qualified highschool students. All instructors must finish their computer science and math course with over a 95%. We hope that through a peer to peer setting, classrooms can become more dynamic and less intimidating!
