We won 1st place in the Children and Young Adults category of the Dun Laoghaire Rathdown County Council Community Awards 2013. This was announced at the Awards ceremony on Thursday 21st November. First place carries a monetary award of €900 which is very exciting!
Thanks to everyone who has made CoderDojo so great that we were judged worthy of this award, it is brilliant to win top place in our category on our very first time entering the Community Awards. It is down to the effort put in by the mentors and the kids attending (and their parents), and our video no doubt helped illustrate the wonderful experience which is CoderDojo.
For anyone who would like to know what other groups were involved, the full list can be seen here.
