Young Coders Summer Camp 2019
We invite young coders (age 10 to 14) to spend the week here learning how to code and how to live ecologically.
Program
The program is shaped in collaboration with the attendants and includes animal care, meal preparation and various programming languages.
Documentation
As we want to instill in our young coders - open source culture - we will encourage participants to record their experience, write good quality code and share it publicly on Gitlab and on this wiki.
You can check out the Automated Irrigation System page.

Costs
Based on last year's event our calculations for 7 days of coding camp come to €500 or €71.50 per coding camp day.
This covers coding workshops, day activities around the farm and evening social games and hangout activities.
A camp day starts at 9am and ends at 11pm (except on night walks we could be a little longer).
You can look at last year's programme here.
If you cannot afford these costs then please contact us to discuss other options.
