QUANTUM AWARD FOR MINECRAFT


Congratulations were the order of the day today when a surprise Skype call from Quantum Victoria (a centre of excellence and innovation in Science and Mathematics) informed the Senior Students that one of our students had been awarded the first ever
Minecraft Moderator of the Month Award 



as a student player on Quantum Victoria's Massively Minecraft Server.
This was awarded as Simon had shown wonderful leadership qualities in the online world - helping newcomers, mending damaged areas and having a positive influence on the 'World'.  
Events like this highlight how on-line gaming can allow students to develop their inter-personal skills and demonstrate leadership qualities.  We highly value the support of the Quantum staff in moderating the Minecraft server as it provides a wonderful opportunity for our students to play and learn in a safe and supported environment.

    This is great news!
    There are a lot of children at my school who are into Minecraft and we are trying to think of different ways to use it to help us with our learning.

    Can we organise a time to talk to you guys about it? We are at St Joseph's in Mernda.
