On Saturday April 28th, CoderDojo@DCU kicked off with DCU graduate Noel King the Chief Mentor at the North Dublin Dojo. Together with CoderDojo mentor Ben Chapman and Mark Roantree from DCU's School of Computing, he has setup a new base on the Northside campus.

It kicked off with the children learning how to construct their first web page. Tutors (and parents) were there to ensure all went smoothly. At the end of the lesson, Noel ran a Q&A session with the children to ensure they understood the meaning of the "weird tags" and would be able to continue changing their web page until next week's Dojo.

Together with RTE Radio1's John Murray and the School of Computing's Dr. Mark Roantree, they created a competition to encourage 1st years to take part in fitness exercises together as a class.
