Students from Alfriston College are part of a year-long project with the Auckland Museum and the Media Design School to recreate 1915 Gallipoli using Minecraft, an award-winning game that allows users to create virtual worlds by placing and removing blocks. The school's digital and technology learning leader Mark Sutherland says the students recreated their school through Minecraft last year. The museum contacted the school, asking how it came up with the virtual world and inviting it to help with the initial build of a virtual Gallipoli.
