You can find more information about the system requirements for Minecraft Education here: System requirements.
Minecraft Education must be installed. Minecraft Education is NOT the same as Minecraft Java or Minecraft Bedrock. The app needs to be installed at home - it is too big to download on site. Without Minecraft Education, the child cannot participate in the camp.
Charging cable (absolutely necessary)
Mouse (mandatory, except for tablets)
For the duration of the course we will provide a Minecraft Education licenseand thus a login for Minecraft Education. Unfortunately, the Minecraft Education license used at the camp is limited to the duration of the course and can no longer be used at home.
If your child has a Microsoft account from school, it is worth checking whether this includes a Minecraft Education license. If so, this login can of course also be used during the camp.
Your child must be able to log in on the device. If your child brings a MAC to the camp, please also give them the administrator password so that we can connect the computer to the WiFi.
