Welcome to the Comox Valley School District’s Fourth Minecraft Build Challenge!

Comox Valley Adventurescape: Theme Park Edition

We invite you to imagine you are the proud owners of a famous theme park design company, with the entire Comox Valley as your canvas. Picture yourself as the architects of imagination, the builders of dreams, and the storytellers of adventures. For this year’s Minecraft Challenge, your mission is to create a theme park that will capture the essence and magic of our remarkable Comox Valley.

Watch this video and use the resources on this page to learn more.

Good luck competitors, we can’t wait to see what you create!

Deadline February 16th, 2023

How do I enter?

  1. If you don’t already have it, you can download Minecraft Education Edition from here: https://education.minecraft.net/en-us/get-started/download
  2. You log in to Minecraft the same way that you log in to Office 365 at home. Your username is your email address: your student#@learn71.ca (if you don’t know your student number you can ask your teacher). Use the same password that you use at school (if you do not know this you should be able to ask your teacher).
  3. You can click Play and then click on Biomes and Worlds to pick the biome that you would like to build your place in.  Click here for some resources to learn about the Goals.
  4. When you are finished you will need to send in a three minute video walkthrough of your world explaining your build and all the great features that you have created. If you are using a computer you can do this using Flip.  If you are using an ipad or iphone you can send in a screencast. The join code for Flip (formerly Flipgrid) is f65c73ef

You can find instructions for how to create a Screencast in Flip here.

Can we work on this in teams at home?

Yes, absolutely! If you can’t get it to work at the same time in different houses (it seems to work with some and not others) with Minecraft Education Edition, you can build and pass. Here are some instructions for build and pass:
