Minecraft & Coding Holiday Club

 

Annabelle Hall

Megabyte club is run by me, Annabelle Hall! I used to run Club-Tastic art and sport holiday club, I stopped running the club after the birth of my second son. It became too much to juggle. Once my youngest turned one I realised I really missed working, and decided to start Megabyte Club, it was very popular when I ran it at Club-Tastic so I was sure it was going to be a success. I am so lucky to be able to call Megabyte Club “work” it is always so much fun!
