Minecraft Social @ Newton Library(5 -16yrs)

Join our Minecraft Social to unleash your imagination- explore build, craft and conquer challenges with fellow gamers of all ages. Whether you're a seasoned player or a curious beginner, this event is the perfect blend of fun and learning. Have fun, make friends and enjoy a shared love for Minecraft.

Our sessions run on laptops or desktops with either an Xbox game controller or mouse and we encourage all children to use these as this builds e-confidence and computer skills. We work with Minecraft Education to allow us to provide secure private worlds as well as additional educational features.

Sessions will take place in a private room on the right as you enter the library, however as the venue is open to the public, all children will be asked to remain in this area and to wear a coloured wristband to identify that they are attending the session. If a child is unable to do this, then a parent or carer will be required to remain with them to supervise (space permitting). If parents wish to stay with children then we can accomodate if space permits- you do not need to book a place for this, but it is helpful if you could contact the provider on the address below, to let the know you would like to do this.

15 places are available to book on this event.

These funded places available to those eligible for and receiving benefits-related free school meals (FSM), and their families. Children who are in receipt of a support plan via Early Help, Child in Need or Children We Look After, EHCP, or if your child receives additional hours at school.

If sessions are full, we advise joining our waiting list, as places will often be released closer to the session date. We anticipate a high demand for these sessions, so if you find you can no longer attend, please log into Eventbrite and request a cancellation or contact us. This will allow us to offer your place to another child.

We aim to take regular screen breaks throughout the sessions. Lunch and a drink will be provided, but please bring a named water bottle.

These activities are aimed at all children and young people (5-16yrs). SEND Friendly – Providers at the event/venue have general SEND awareness and small adjustments can be made. SEND Accessible – Physically accessible venue or event.
