I Have a Raspberry Pi but I don't know which version it is
If your Pi has only 2 USB ports, it's a V1B and probably too old and slow to be useful in the club environment. Don't throw it away though, it still has plenty of good uses if you can do without a desktop environment.
If your Pi has 4 USB ports it's good to go for the code club, as it will be a V1B+, V2 or V3 model.
