Whittlesea Minecraft


Woodcraft Club at Whittlesea PS turned its sights to Minecraft again and introduced Endeman to the collection. It was fairly easy to prepare for Peter in the cutting and drilling side. He chose to paint black ink over the arms and legs and that took some time, given the number made. He made a few "Steves" for those who missed out on that in previous years. Each kit was placed in a clip-lock bag to manage the distribution and the session went "gang-busters". Many children had to be shown how to put the "skin" over the wooden blocks, some too young to do it. Hammers and nails were used. There was a little bit of design variation and that was amusing as well as fun to see. Some children have now asked for an Ende-dragon. Peter will have to check it out on the internet to decide whether it is materially viable and at their skill level.
