3D Modelling & Redstone Engineering in Minecraft
The camp
MakeCraft harnesses the creative freedom of Minecraft to teach 3D visualisation and redstone circuitry. Campers move from building simple structures to engineering complex architectural feats.
The second half of the day is devoted to exploring the physics of redstone, Minecraft’s most mysterious element. Using redstone, we build logic gates, roller-coasters, flying machines and much more.
By 3:30pm, we will have…
Good to know
Every camp includesA printed certificate, games & activities, a parent showcase, flexible drop-off, like-minded friends, and a 1:12 staff-to-camper ratio.
Before you book
Does my child need any experience?
None at all. Total beginners and seasoned builders both thrive — a mentor meets every camper exactly where they are.
Do they need their own laptop?
No — we provide everything, from the laptops to Minecraft and all the gear. They just bring themselves.
What should they bring?
Just lunch, snacks and a water bottle. We handle the rest, and there are breaks built into the day.
How big are the groups?
Small and personal — we cap it at a 1:12 mentor-to-camper ratio so no one gets left behind.
Can I come to the showcase?
Please do! The last half-hour is a parent showcase where campers demo what they built that day.
What if they’ve never played Minecraft on a computer?
Perfectly fine. However, they might not get as far as other students as they will spend some time getting used to the controls.
What if they are Minecraft pros?
We have yet to meet a camper we could not push to a new limit - bring it on!
