Supposedly at the end of April (27./28.), the Open Tech School and HacKIDemia will colaborate to make a hackathon for kids happen. It's not only about Scratch, but will be full with all kinds of DIY and maker workshops. Circuits, 3D printing, MaKey MaKey, everything interesting and hands-on!

No need to be a German speaker! Whatever language(s) you speak, bring yourself! French, Italian, Spanish, German, English, Turkish, Russian.....

On wednesday we'll have a prep meeting, don't fret if you can't make it, otherwise, see you there!

Sorry to be late with this, here is the video documentation of the kids hackathon! 

In the Open Tech School meetup group you'll find a photo collection.

Here is the blog post of Toywheel, one of the three organizers.

 

I can honestly say it was a lot of fun, and I enjoyed so much showing kids what they can do with Scratch. :)
