Congratulations Matthew!

Mandy Dempsey —

A huge congratulations to our very own Matthew Booker who has won some very prestigious awards for his awesome game design.

Matthew designed and programmed 'Super Māori'. This is scratch  game based on how Maui slowed the sun. To play, the user moves through a platform game collecting points (brothers, kumara etc) to catch and slow the sun.

Here is a video link to Matthew's explanation of his game:

It was with great excitement that we learned Matthew has won first prize for his age group in two different competitions with his 'Super Māori' entry:

The Grow Waitaha DigiAwards

Code Club Aotearoa DigiStories Competition

Ka mau te wehi! Your Avonhead whānau are very proud of you Matthew!
