Player on Monday. Developer by Friday.
In just one week, our Minecraft Mods Course takes your child from being a player to a mod developer, unleashing their creativity and building valuable skills in logic (IF-THEN-ELSE), game mechanics, structured thinking and problem-solving. Packed full of hands-on learning, using MCreator, your child will design and build their own custom mods (modifications).
As the week unfolds, your child will use event driven logic to design blocks that respond to player actions, craft tools with unique behaviours, and build environments that follow their own rules. For example, coding a block that turns into a bridge when stepped on, perfect for crossing a river. Then they’ll go further coding mob behaviours, growing crops, invent biomes with its own creatures, and even building entirely new dimensions. Each day builds on the last and encourages creativity, experimentation and problem-solving at every stage.
By the end of the course, everything your child has built will come together in a complete mod pack their own fully personalised version of Minecraft they can play and share with family and friends.
It’s fun. It’s creative. And it’s real learning.

At our Minecraft summer camp your child’s adventure begins by uncovering the secrets in Minecraft whilst learning about subjects such as the mechanics of water, tertiary colours and so on.
Once secrets are uncovered, they will learn how to mod (modify) Minecraft by understanding how blocks, items, creatures and the Minecraft world itself works in the back-end. They then progress onto learning how to create and configure properties, functions and textures of these fundamental elements of the game. Functions determine how a mod performs and they are only limited by your child’s imagination and can be as wide ranging as making it rain sheep or creating an explosion when you step on a special block!
Once your child has mastered this level of modding at our Minecraft camp they will be able to design, implement and test a variety of different types of mods, such as blocks, tools, creatures, dimensions and so on – unleashing the unlimited number of exciting possibilities for your child to mod.
