New intern My Le
Hi, I’m My! and I’m currently doing my fourth year, double-majoring in Sociology Studies and Business Management at the Australian Catholic University. Through this intern with You Me We, I’m eager to experience realistic working environments, and especially of that in Japan, a country I’ve always had great attachment to. I look forward to gaining knowledge on how an NPO in Japan operates, and also excited to be meeting and working with new peers. I hope through this intern I can usefully contribute to the community and through the process create unforgettable memories with You Me We.

code clubのイベント紹介！
みなさんこんにちは！ YouMeWe code club の Arata です。
今回は私たちcode clubが行っているプログラミングイベントの内容についてお伝えできればと思います！ 私たち YouMeWe code club では毎週火曜と土曜日のどちらかに、イベントを開催しています！ 内容は様々ですが、今回は幼稚園生~中学生向けのイベントについて紹介します。 プログラミングと言っても、皆さんがイメージする沢山文字を書くようなものではありません。 scratchと言う、画面上に表示されたブロックを繋げるだけで簡単にプログラミングが楽しめるものを使っています。LEGOブロックのようにブロックを繋ぐだけできるので、とても簡単に直感的な操作でプログラミングができます。 僕らが教えている子供たちも、最初は難しそうと言っていましたが、今では新しいものを作りたいと、積極的に参加してくれています。 すごく簡単にできるので、興味があったらみなさんも是非参加してみてください! お待ちしております!

A few words from our new intern:

Because of that, my favorite hobbies revolve around learning other languages, some of which include Japanese and Korean. I'll be interning at YouMeWe for the summer where I hope to gain experience with non-profit work because I view it as a personal duty to do what I can to improve the lives of those who struggle and suffer in society.
