Always popular, we’ve decided to do not one, but two school holiday social sessions this time around! One at Fremantle in week one of the school holidays, and the second one at Victoria Park Public Library! That one will be a little different…
The good news is that by the time these roll around, we should be well and truly on 1.21.1. A new Survival world to get stuck into!
Fremantle Library – Week 1
First up, we’ll be hanging out on Tuesday 24th September from 2 – 5pm at Fremantle Library! That one will be a social session like we’re used to – a few laptops for jumping in game, board games and just space to hang out.

Victoria Park Library – Week 2
In the second week of the school holidays we’ll be heading down to the Victoria Park Public Library to hang out there! This one is a little different, with bookings being essential, a small cost set by the library, and a tour happening for new people interested in joining the server.
Where: Victoria Park Public Library When: Tuesday 1st October, 10am – 12 noon Cost: $3 Bookings Essential
John will be doing a bit of a server tour for new families wanting to join and there’ll be some laptops available for people to try their hands at some creative building in a special world in the server. It’s a shorter session, but this one will be focusing on the new players coming in.
Either way, they’re going to be a lot of fun! See you there!
Like last time we’ve had a lot of requests over the term for another social session! We love doing them each holidays, so here’s the information you need for July’s one! We’ll be hanging out together again at Fremantle Library on Tuesday July 9th.

We’ve had a brilliant day in Albany last week, with heaps of people coming to Albany Library to say hi and see what the server is all about, plus play some great board games and get stuck into the Nintendo Switch!
Firstly, thank you so much to Albany Library for having us – we had a blast! We set everyone there a challenge – build something tropical in 30 minutes and we got some excellent entries. Well done to everyone who entered! We had builders that had never touched Java Edition before, and some more seasoned players. You all did really well! It took us a while to get our top three, but here they are.
If you see your build below, please get in touch with Albany Library and they’ll be able to connect you with your prizes! We’ve got a LEGO set for 1st prize (21319 Central Perk), and a $20 EB Games voucher for 2nd and 3rd.
In the top three we had two Albany locals new to the server, and one player that we’ve had for a long time – one of our first whitelisted actually! We really hope all the players we’ve had in the competition that are new will join the server really soon! It’ll be great to see them online.
1st Place: Albany Local
We loved the detail in this build – the cake and food options in the beach hut, the swimming hole, and the beaches on the sand!
2nd: Albany Local
The coral reef was so vibrant in this one, and the trees are really well built. Well done!
3rd: imaginemode
Imaginemode came up with a brilliantly detailed pineapple, that also included some honey blocks for the fruit inside, and a two block Spongebob Squarepants living inside! Super clever and the banners were a spot on detail. Well done imagine!
Again, thanks so much and a well done to all our entrants. If you met us at Albany Library on Friday, you can apply to join the server if you have a Java Edition account of your own! We’d really love to see you be a part of this awesome community.
As you’ll hopefully know by now, we’re heading to Albany for a big day of LibraryCraft fun on Friday! We’ll be there all day, chatting to people and playing on the server, and we’ll also be running a competition for those of you that are there on the day – you can see the map in the image above!
The theme for the competition is Tropical. You’ll need to put your name down for a slot (the links are in the original article linked above) in order to compete. You’ll be limited to 30 minutes to build in one plot.
Players that are online but not in the building on the day will not be able to compete – this is for players in the building using our logins. Otherwise it’s too hard for us to keep an eye on build times.
There will be some prizes available for the winners of the competition, including some LEGO!
We’re really looking forward to seeing heaps of people there on the day. We can’t wait!
