Children get creative with robot coding at Downham Market library

Youngsters got hands-on with a real robot at a coding event at Downham Market Library last week.

Children aged six to nine learned different ways of controlling Botley The Coding Robot during the session, which lasted an hour and a half, on Tuesday.

Participants, who were not required to have previous coding experience, were tasked with getting creative to build a city and working as a team to complete a challenge.
