# 🏫 Starting in Your School

Interested in bringing KuttyMakers to your school? Here's how you can get started.

#### Reach out to the TinkerHub team

The first step is to get in touch with us. We'll walk you through the KuttyMakers philosophy, help you understand how communities work, and answer any questions you may have.

#### Find people who'd love to do this with you

Starting a community is easier when you have a few people who share the same enthusiasm. This could be a fellow teacher, your principal, a librarian, a parent, or anyone in the school who believes children should have more opportunities to explore and learn by doing.

You don't need a large team—just a few people who are excited to get started.

#### Bring together a small group of students

Invite students who are curious and willing to participate. Don't worry about selecting only the "best" students or those already interested in technology.

KuttyMakers is for children who are willing to explore, ask questions, and learn together.

#### Get your community onboard

Once you're ready, we'll help you onboard your school into the KuttyMakers network. You'll get access to resources, activity ideas, updates, and a growing community of schools that are building similar experiences for children.

#### Start with simple experiences

There's no need to wait for a dedicated makerspace or expensive equipment.

Start with what you already have. A conversation, a walk around the campus, taking apart an old device, inviting a local maker, or building something from everyday materials can all become meaningful learning experiences.

#### Keep building

Every school will build KuttyMakers differently, and that's exactly how it should be.

Start small, learn from each experience, involve more people over time, and build a community that reflects your school's unique culture.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://wiki.tinkerhub.org/kutty-makers/starting-in-your-school.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
