WELCOME to our Krikaskóli Public School workshop!

During this workshop, students will have the opportunity to create and design entire regions in Minecraft.

Students will work on a Minecraft server, which is an exact replica of Iceland. There are many things to consider when designing regions, so it is necessary to hold brainstorming meetings, planning meetings, work in teams and distributive tasks.
