Hi Folks,

I realise many of you are not based in the UK (actually, out of
interest, who on this list is..?), but I thought you might be
interested in the following announcement:

Know any teachers..? Have you got kids..? Attending PyconUK at the end
of this month..?

Yup, after the success of last year's education track we're running a
new and improved version this year. With five invited speakers,
workshops and a "Raspberry Jam" (for kids) on the Sunday we're making
sure PyconUK is top-of-the-class when it comes to engaging with the
Pythonistas of tomorrow.

Alan O'Donohoe has written up a blog post explaining what we have
planned here:

If you know a teacher, tell 'em to sign up and come learn Python and
collaborate with developers on producing educational resources. If you
have kids, bring them along on the Sunday (where they can, among other
things, learn to program the game-du-jour "Minecraft" with Python).

Thanks to Bank of America for their sponsorship of the education track.

Spread the word, tell your friends and bring your kids!

It'll be awesome.

Nicholas.
