Young programmers aged 9 – 12 years can create their own cyberpet using micro:bits and Python at this month’s Science Oxford Computing club.

Design and code a BBC micro:bit ‘Tamagotchi’ creature and bring it to life, complete with a beating heart! More Catbot than Chatbot, teach it to talk or bleep using the display and sound effects. Keep your virtual BFF’s ‘Smiley-faced’ with naps, playtime, walkies and treats!
