Every year Technovation invites teams of girls to learn and apply the skills needed to solve real-world problems through digital technology.

If your daughter’s keen on digital tech, maybe you should check out the website. They’ll work with a team of friends to create, build and market a mobile app – no prior experience is necessary.

This project is generally run through schools (students don’t have to be with Code Champions). So, you’ll need to enthuse your daughter’s teacher to participate. However, we’re happy to help where we can – and can perhaps provide some mentoring.

Join a global community of 15,000 girls from 100+ countries and lead the change. Registrations have already opened, with the competition officially kicking off in January 2019.

There will also be an information evening at MissMoos Kitchen (50 Waimarie Road, St Heliers) at 6-7pm on Tuesday, November 13.

As you know, there’s a primary teachers’ strike planned for Monday, 12 November. We have two classes on Mondays.

In consultation with the schools, we have decided to do the following:

Meadowbank School – Classes as normal (running alongside Club Meadowbank)

Mt Eden Normal Primary School –  Classes cancelled (make-up classes to be held in the last week of term, 17 December)
