We are pleased to announce that Code Ninjas will be opening at Willoughby Town Centre on July 4.
We talked to the owners and asked them to share more about what Code Ninjas offer, why they decided to open in Langley, and a little about the owners and their backgrounds.
What does Code Ninjas offer?
Code Ninjas is a coding school with programs designed to teach children how to code! We recognize that kids have a natural affinity for technology, so we’ve created a fun, safe environment where kids learn to code by creating the video games they love to play. At Code Ninjas, students improve their critical thinking, resourcefulness, and logic through programming in JavaScript, Lua, and C#, which are currently lacking in our local schools’ core curriculum.
Why are you excited to be opening Code Ninjas in Langley?
We are extremely excited to be opening Code Ninjas in Langley! We understand that Langley has had a storied past and has played a historic role in the early development of the lower mainland. We have a passion for education and understand that we are now in the “Information Age” – with such demand for education related to STEM, we want to teach something that is currently not widely offered. Put simply, all the apps and technology behind cell phones and computers were made by someone with prior software education. Tesla is not a car manufacturer, but rather a tech company that makes cars. Our goal is to educate the young minds that will shape the future landscape of the tech industry.
Why did you choose Willoughby Town Centre as a location?
We chose Willoughby Town Centre as a location because it’s becoming an increasingly lively community with shops, restaurants, and services opening up in the area. Willoughby’s easy access to Highway 1, Fraser Highway, Golden Ears Way, and even the Surrey-Langley skytrain being built make the location easily accessible! The Willoughby community is wonderful, and we’re extremely excited to connect with the new businesses opening up, families moving in, and schools around the Willoughby area.
