I started a thread about this a while ago and got some good responses:

I did Coder Dojo with my daughter recently in Victoria and it was good though alarmingly I found myself having to help her as it was less 'taught' than I anticipated, which meant we had to work out quite a lot ourselves (we were creating a website). So that was ... interesting, given my non-existent knowledge of coding. Still it was free and I'm sure we will go back - I'll be a bit more prepared next time!


I looked into Spark4Kids and it sounds good but it's eye-wateringly expensive. And I have now twice emailed Codeclub.org.uk as apparently they run one at Dulwich Hamlet but I have never heard back. If anyone knows anything about this club I'd be interested to hear about it, but I'm assuming it's now defunct.

Thanks Redjam and Norfolkvillas for your swift responses. She programs in the afternoon on my laptop but asks me questions and sadly I'm quite ill equipped. I need to look at it properly to help her. I will look into the workshops. She's very computer literate for her age so I'm keen to encourage her. Thanks x
There is a coding club at Peckham Library that my daughter attends on Tuesdays from 4pm to 6pm and is free. Unfortunately, the project is coming to an end soon but if there is interest they may run more classes again. If the location and time is convenient please PM me with your contact details and I can keep you informed.

    • Yes, still odd. Their information seems mostly to have come from the social media post referred to above. And, as you say , reported "cautiously".
    • I have taken books to the Oxfam book shop in Herne Hill in the past and found they had a limit on how many bags they would accept from one person, so worth checking in advance if they have any current restrictions, don't want to lug a heavy bag out of the car and be told they won't accept. I was able to park nearby - in the side street on the other side of the road, but I do know it's luck of the draw how far down that street you have to go to get a space.
    • I would phone ahead to check whether they are accepting donations. I’ve been in the shop a couple of times over the past few years and seen people turned away with book donations. There are a few parking spaces outside the row of shops there and it’s sometimes pot luck but I’ve usually parked ok. Let us know how it goes Sue.   l
    • Hussein and his team have just finished painting our main reception room, kitchen and hallway throughout the house. We also threw a few extra curve balls in while we were away like painting the front door, garden walls and helping fit some new lights. Hussein is a pleasure to deal with: professional, diligent, trust worthy, flexible and a really nice bloke. This is the second time we have worked with him and will definitely do so again.
