Blast Off & Build: The Brick & Blocks Challenge
Blast off into a summer of creativity, coding and construction at W5 LIFE! Young explorers are invited to design and build their very own futuristic space bases using LEGO bricks and Minecraft Education.
Will your base survive on the Moon? Could it support life on Mars? From launch pads and research labs to space farms, the possibilities are endless.
Builders take part in our two exciting challenge zones:
- LEGO Space Base Challenge - Design and build a hands-on space station using LEGO.
- Minecraft Education Space Base Challenge - Create your ultimate base in Minecraft Education. Build solo or join shared Minecraft worlds to create something out of this world together with your friends or family.
