Minecraft with Potential Kids
What is Minecraft?
Minecraft is a sandbox video game created by Swedish game developer Notch (Markus Persson) and released initially on 17 May 2009. The game allows players to build with a variety of different blocks in a 3D generated world, requiring creativity from players. Other activities in the game include exploration, resource gathering, crafting, and combat. Multiple game modes that change gameplay are available, including—but not limited to—a survival mode, in which players must acquire resources to build the world and maintain health, and a creative mode, where players have unlimited resources to build with. The Java Edition of the game allows players to modify the game with mods to create new gameplay mechanics, items, textures and assets.
What is the activity?
This activity is for young people to be able to play Minecraft together and make new friends in a safe environment moderated by Potential Kids.
These sessions will allow the development of creative and problem-solving skills, as well as strong friendships through play.
Where and when?
Sessions are held in the Potential Kids Hub in The Old Management Suite, The Galleria.
Currently we hold an on-site session the 1st and 3rd Friday of the month, and an on-site + remote session the 2nd Sunday of the month, cancellations notwithstanding.
