Carclew’s July School Holiday Program: VR Tower Quest

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND – Carclew VR Tower Quest! 

After selling out during the April school holidays, VR Tower Quest is returning to Carclew!

Looking for an unforgettable school holiday adventure? Step into a world of creativity, technology, and storytelling with VR Tower Quest – a hands-on experience where your imagination takes the lead.

Morning: Create Your Characters
Begin your day by designing your very own characters using Tinkercad, a fun 3D modelling tool. Start from a template or dream up something totally original – it’s your story to tell! You’ll build backstories, invent quests, and get your characters ready for a journey into the virtual world.

Afternoon: Enter the VR Realm
With guidance from immersive technologist Cameron Coggins, you’ll bring your creations to life using the Oculus VR system. Upload your characters, step into a fully immersive world, and set off on an epic adventure through the legendary Carclew Tower.

Whether you're into game design, illustration, storytelling, or just love trying new things, VR Tower Quest is the ultimate school holiday experience.
