Posted on February 18, 2022 by 5th & 6th Class Posted in School News

5th & 6th Class have been very busy for the last few weeks creating a sustainable version of our school and village for this Minecraft competition. They came up with some fantastic ideas for sustainability and really showcased their building skills in Minecraft. The project has been really enjoyable and we are hoping our entry will impress the judges!
