Game On!
Skills for learning, life and the world of work
Ideal for Years: 7-9
Explore the world of design thinking with Game On! This dynamic challenge empowers students to unleash their creativity by designing and constructing their very own arcade game.
They'll brainstorm, prototype, and iterate to create their own game using recycled and sustainable materials. Throughout the process, they'll learn the value of iteration and resilience as they work through design challenges and refine their ideas. Working collaboratively in teams, they'll discover their unique talents, strengths, creativity, and problem-solving skills to deliver an immersive gaming experience for their audience.
This program emphasises teamwork and perseverance as students collaborate over multiple days to refine their designs and ultimately bring their creations to life.
And the best part? The school community gets to join in the fun at the carnival on the final day!
