Bitlink Bytes Regional Roadshow | Westbury

We are hosting FREE technology workshops at Westbury Library this July holidays for youth aged 9 - 16 years old. These workshops are a part of our 2025 Bitlink Bytes Regional Roadshow, which will take the Bitlink team all across Tasmania! We are running these FREE technology workshops with thanks to a recent STEM education grant and will set our sights on a different regional area in Tasmania, for every coming school holiday period.

The second area we're visiting is North and North East Tasmania!

On Monday July 14th we will be at: Westbury Library (33 William St, Westbury TAS 7303) from 12pm - 5pm

We will be running the following sessions:

Session 2: 3pm - 5pm Micro:bit Makers (9 - 16yr olds) Learn to code with the BBC micro:bit! Use block-based coding to create: animations using LEDs, chiptune melodies and songs, and send messages to others via radio waves! Code, assemble and test your own step counter and much more!
