Our pilot program invites participants to collaborate, and build together within a new survival-adventure title! Designed with neurodivergent gamers in mind, pilot program builds on the values of our SafePlay: Minecraft sessions by creating a supportive, engaging space where players can explore, adventure, and collaborate with others in their community.
Every session is hosted on our private, whitelisted servers in tandem with Zoom. SafePlay is led by allied health professionals, educators and team members with lived experience of neurodivergence, ensuring our participants are not only supervised, but their individual needs are also truly understood and supported.
Our sessions are designed for children aged between 8 and 15 years old. Our Minecraft programs run in 8-week blocks, and our Lego Fortnite sessions piloting in 4 standalone sessions. Our SafePlay Everyone Group is open to any and all gamers, while our SafePlay Girls+ Group is open to players who identify as female, non-binary, or gender diverse.

It’s not too late to join!
Late enrolments are always open for the remaining sessions of our online programs.
We will provide guided instructions on how to connect to our private server. You will need a device that can run Zoom, a copy of Minecraft: Bedrock edition, and a compatible gaming device, such as:
– Xbox
– Nintendo Switch
– PC
– iPad
If you are using an Xbox or Nintendo Switch, you will also need an Xbox Live or Nintendo Switch Online subscription that allows you to play online.
Unfortunately Mac and PlayStation devices are not compatible with our Minecraft: Bedrock server.
Our Lego Fortnite sessions are available on all platforms, including web-based cloud gaming.
Depending on your NDIS plan inclusions, you may be able to claim SafePlay sessions using NDIS funding. Please confirm this with your local area coordinator and/or plan manager before registering for SafePlay. Please let us know if you require any supporting documentation for NDIS and we will help you out.
Yes! We accept late enrolments for the remaining sessions of the term. The program fee will be adjusted to reflect the number of sessions left.
We find that our programs are the best fit for players aged between 8 and 15 as a guideline, but we know our players are individuals with diverse needs. If your child is outside this age range but you think they will be a good fit SafePlay, please get in touch with us and we will help you assess whether the program is right for them.
Unfortunately the Java version of Minecraft is not compatible with our server. You will need the Bedrock version to join.
Unfortunately mods cannot be used on our Minecraft server as they can cause compatibility issues for other players.
SafePlay sessions are consistently supervised by trained adult facilitators on both the session Zoom call and in the SafePlay server. All voice and text chat logs are monitored by adult session facilitators, and participants are provided with consistent support to play, build, and create together in positive and inclusive ways.
The safety of our SafePlay participants is our highest priority. If a SafePlay participant would like to connect with a friend outside the sessions, we’ll work with families to ensure all communication remains safe and appropriately monitored.
At the moment, the SafePlay server runs in Creative mode. Survival mode is not available yet, but please keep an eye on our channels for future updates!
Yes! SafePlay sessions run online, so they are open to families who live anywhere in Australia.
