About Minemania
Our Motto: Peace, Love, and Friendship. ALWAYS!!
Battlegrounds
We run weekly hosted sessions term time, and the server is open 24/7 so your child can access when they want to. Our hosted sessions are social sessions to allow the children to get together at the same time, with Zoom to chat, and we play together and talk. Hosts Rachel, Terry, and Ryan are MineMania/Creative Active Lives staff and are safeguarding trained and hold enhanced DBS.
Hosted sessions are:
Tuesday 6-7pm
Thursday 6-7pm

The server is for children aged 6-16. We are primarily a server for children and young people with SEND, but we do not ask for a diagnosis and all children in our age range are welcome. Inclusivity and community cohesion is important to us, and we love to bring children together to play in a supportive, inclusive, welcoming and understanding environment.
