Girls' Programming Network

What's GPN?

The Girls' Programming Network is a group of women and girls into computer science, programming and information technology. We run workshops once per school term for highschool girls! We've written games, made interactive websites and taken apart computers! Check out the past projects to see what girls have done, and what you could be doing!

What happens at a GPN workshop?

We'll teach you how to make an awesome programming project each time. We also make friends, eat pizza, and do other fun activities!

There will be heaps of tutors at GPN to teach you and help you learn at a pace that's right for you. Our tutors are women and girls who love IT. Some tutors are uni students studying IT or other STEM areas. Others are software engineers from cool companies like Google, Atlassian, Data61 and more!

Our workshops are designed for high school girls, but keen upper-primary school girls are welcome to come too.

All skill levels from absolute beginner to coding ninja are welcome. You just need to be excited to learn about technology!
