I created this website to document the use of Minecraft in the Alfriston College Digital Technology curriculum 2011-2021
In 2014 and 2015 about 30 students from Alfriston College in Auckland created the Gallipoli Minecraft world for the Auckland War Memorial Museum for the WWII centenary exhibition 2015. These videos demonstrate an accurate Minecraft re-creation of the WWII ANZAC Gallipoli campaign. The Minecraft Gallipoli world was shared with every school in New Zealand and internationally to enable children to explore Gallipoli in a Minecraft environment as part of the centenary anniversary.
