NewTechKids is pleased to have been invited back to teach computer science lessons at Leonardo da Vinci School, a primary school in Amsterdam.

We are teaching two, 21st Century Skills Clubs: one for students ages 7-9 and one for students ages 10-12. The Club’s 10-week program of weekly lessons will provide students with a strong foundation to understand core computer science concepts and design and program technology solutions.

NewTechKids taught at Leonardo da Vinci School during the 2015-2016 school year but stopped due to funding issues. We were thrilled to be invited back by the Audrey Verschuren, the school’s principal.

“Understanding what technology is and how it works is important for our students in order to prepare for the future’, Vershuren says. “Technology is all around us. Kids need education which shifts them from being passive technology users to active inventors and innovators.”

NewTechKids’ 21st Century Skills Clubs will run from May until July 2017.
