Minecraft Chat Club (6-Week Block)


Starting Monday 23rd February (4:30pm - 5:30pm GMT - last session is BST)

Age guide: 7-12

£45 per child / £60 per child inc. Discover Arts Award

*Optional add-on*

Your child can complete a Discover Arts Award as part of this block. We will create, learn and share skills together as we go along and you can decide with your child how to record their progress. Just send us a few photos, drawings, written work, videos or audio recordings to earn a certificate. This is a great introduction to the Arts Awards (we offer Explore, Bronze and Silver Awards too) or just a fun project to do together! Ideal for children who prefer a more flexible learning style.

£60 includes 6-weeks of sessions plus facilitation for the award, a Discover log book and certificate.

Do you have a gamer at home? Do they like to talk about the games they play? I know mine does!

Book your young person in for an hour of chat with like-minded gamers in a held space. Please note that we will not be able to discuss any game rated 12 or higher by PEGI due to the age range for this session so please ensure that this is understood and accepted by your child before booking a space.

This is a set of 6, weekly sessions. This allows the group to get to know each other, and the facilitator to identify and extend interests and themes.

Our sessions are learner-led, so each one is a collaborative experience. Depending on the interests of the children we may explore:

  • Minecraft mobs and players

  • Blocks, buildings, potions and food

  • Mod apps

  • Redstone and tools

  • The End and The Nether

  • Tricks and tips

This is a chat session, rather than a gaming session, so we will be talking about Minecraft but not necessarily playing together (although the children do often choose to share their gamer names with each other).

The session will be facilitated by experienced educator and mother to a Minecraft-lover, Jay Byrd (former childminder and current home educator).

Optional: Bring Minecraft books, plushies, Lego or other toys.

Each session will take place on a Monday afternoon from 4:30pm-5:30pm (GMT/ las session is BST) and be held online, using Zoom
