Lord Byron’s only legitimate child, Augusta Ada Byron, Countess of Lovelace - was a teen who made a difference! Today, the second Tuesday in October, is celebrated as Ada Lovelace Day to shine a light on the amazing work done by women. Around the age of 17, Ada met Charles Babbage, a mathematician and inventor. The pair became friends, and Babbage served as a mentor to Ada. She was asked to translate an article on Babbage's analytical engine. Alongside her translation she added her own notes that described how codes could be created for the device to handle letters and symbols along with numbers. She also theorised a method for the engine to repeat a series of instructions, a process known as looping that computer programs use today. For her work, Ada is often considered to be the first computer programmer . . . . . #adalovelaceday #firstlady #girlsintech #computerprogrammer #coder #codebreaker #changetheworld
Happy #AdaLovelaceDay19 day! We celebrate the achievements of the worlds’ first computer programmer, aware that the industry today lacks in broad representation. Yesterday our CEO addressed @natwest_business at #FutureFit highlighting strengths of both female & male contributions. . . . . . #womeninstem #computerscience #adalovelace #coding #pioneer #futurefit #diversity #inclusionmatters #stemgirls

Save up to £100!* Book Cypher's "Entrepreneur + Coding" Oct Holiday Camp NOW ! This half-term we are running our first Entrepreneur + Coding camps. Kids love coming up with crazy ideas - we’re going to help them make their passions into a business! Nurturing entrepreneurial skills, like problem solving, creativity and a ‘have-a-go’ spirit, help get kids ready to succeed in our global economy. Learning to code is a great way to develop these skills. Our Oct camp will guide students through the steps of setting up a business and making a website. Each week will cover ideation, website design, creating a game to develop a business plan, brand identity, digital art and office design in Minecraft. We will wrap up the week with a fun Dragon’s Den-style presentation - so come up with your wildest ideas and try them out! *Book by midday on the 27th of Sept to SAVE! Dates: 21 Oct - 1 Nov 2019 (Mon to Fri) Time: 10-4pm (early drops-off and late pick-ups bookable) Enrol: link in bio . . . . . #londonkids #holiday #beyourownboss #codingcamp #girlboss #kidpreneur #lemonade #business #kidsrule #halfterm #october #halloween # #kidsstuff #parent #coolkids #mumlife #mumsinbusiness
As part of our ‘Design for Tomorrow’ themed camp this week, our coding students discover & discuss what the future of transportation will look like (few spaces remain - check link in bio!). Whilst they explore exciting advances in technology and automotive design, luxury carmaker, Aston Martin, has launched a design service - creating futuristic high-tech garages, homes and “villain-esque lairs" to show off their customers’ most impressive futuristic cars. . . . . .

Haven’t these holidays flown by - last week of coding camps starts Monday! We are getting kids #futureready by giving them an education in coding, enhancing their computational thinking skills and doing so through fun creative projects. Join us for a last week of our Design for Tomorrow camp! (Use link in bio) This week our students will: Use architectural rules to build lego models and create images of their designs in ‘real-life’ settings Make wearable tech - design and make badges using conductive thread and LEDs Learn about future of travel and code a microbit Curate and design their own virtual AR museum Become a 3D designer - design and 3D print their own ring Every day includes touch typing and computing lessons, healthy snacks and games outside (weather permitting)
For our campers who love a code-breaking activity, this one’s for you! On at the Science Museum now is TOP SECRET: FROM CIPHERS TO CYBER SECURITY_ - discover the remarkable world of codebreaking, ciphers and secret communications in this must-see, free exhibition. Explore the story of Alan Turing and the team of Bletchley Park codebreakers who broke the Enigma code in 1941, uncover spy-craft from 1960’s Cold War espionage and challenge your friends and family to become codebreakers in our interactive puzzle zone. Up to 8,000 women worked at Bletchley Park during the Second World War. Although Alan Turing and other male codebreakers are the operation's most well-known employees, women made up around 75% of the total workforce at Bletchley!! Remember- next week we are breaking the code to being “Fit for the Future” Discover how technology will play a role in our future wellbeing (link in bio) . . . . . #codebreaker #puzzle #secret #spy #whattodoinlondon #london #exhibition #sciencemuseum #bletchleypark #war #girlswhocode #codingcamp #kidcoders
It looks to be a wet and windy affair this weekend so it’s a brilliant time to catch some of the excellent summer exhibitions on offer around London. You can always count on the @barbicancentre to excite us with an innovative look at our world. If you haven’t yet - go see “AI: More than Human” where you’ll be invited to explore our relationship with artificial intelligence. This ‘festival-style’ exhibition uncovers creative and scientific developments in AI, demonstrating its potential to revolutionise our lives. Catch it if you can ! • Side note - on display are cutting-edge research projects by @mitmedialab and @nerioxman - we are in awe of her exquisite mind and views on the intersection of biology, design and computation #girlcrush! . . . . . #rainyday #wetweekends #london #summerexhibition #thebarbican #morethanhuman #ai #augmentedreality #future #nerioxman #mit #bradpitt
‪Human capacity to problem solve is remarkable! When we apply our creativity and logic we come up with some stunning solutions-like this design for recreating icebergs. This week our own students will tackle climate change in a “save the polar bear” coding challenge. . . . . .

Collaboration is a skill, one that has been highlighted by the World Economic Forum as a key soft skill for future employment. We set our students programming challenges - success hinging upon cooperation and communication, as we know these are more than essential future employment skills, they are the critical skills we need to tackle an environment in crisis. This week at camp we discover the relationship between conservation and code - and how we can use technology to affect change. During Earth Calling! week students will: • Make a shark chase game and learn about saving our oceans • Investigate the effect of climate change on the ice caps and code a game to save polar bears with icebergs • Use a microbit to make a moisture sensor for indoor plants and find out more about rainforests • Design a virtual ant farm and find out what bugs we might be eating in the future - eergh! • Reuse and upcycle - turn trash into treasure... • Every day includes touch typing, healthy snacks and games outside (weather permitting) Book now - link in bio ! . . . . . #codecamp #futurereadykids #employment #skills #gamer #conservation #collaboration #saveourplanet #bugs #futurefood #reuse #climatechange #icecaps #polarbear #savetheocean #microbit #codingprojects #pink #lego #laptop #kids
