Delightful to be kicking off this morning with other great SA NPO's in the @Meta NPO Incubator, with Luceo.
Starting with explaining why we are here, and engaging on where we're going aka "vision"

fudo.phambili(1) 🥳
~= turtle.forward(1)
~= one small step for 🐢
Learners can now talk to turtle, or fudo, in isiXhosa!
github.com/coderlevelup/turt…
Primary proj goal is to make it more delightful to learn python by being able to instruct the turtle in the learner's home language.

Thanks to @amy_o_meara & wonderful team @CoderDojo global for a fantastic (free) tool to guide young makers into coding: the learning path.
We just prepared a dojo champion to be confident with activities for their makers in under 10 minutes using it!
