[ubuntu-za] Introductory Python Course, August 27-29 and 17-19 September

[Marco Gallotta]

Hey all

We're approaching the application deadline (this Friday), but I'm just
passing this on in case any of you have kids / know of kids / whatever that
are keen to get an introduction to programming. The courses are fully
sponsored, so there is no charge. Feel free to send any queries to
queries at umonya.co.za

Please note that this course is not for adults, and we unfortunately have to
reject any applications from them. Our aim is to generate enthusiasm amongst
kids who otherwise wouldn't have such an opportunity. If, however, you would
like to volunteer your assistance we would be very grateful. :)

Regards
Marco
