The new Warhammer 40K club has officially launched at St. Mary’s High School, attracting students eager to explore the intricacies of this popular tabletop game. With a focus on strategic gameplay and creative model building, the club offers a unique space for students to connect over their shared interests in the sci-fi universe. Meetings take place every Friday after school in the Design and Technology (DT) room, overseen by teachers Mr. Pettit and Mr. Jones.
The club has quickly gained momentum, drawing in a diverse group of students excited to learn about the game’s mechanics. “I love how everyone brings their own perspective to the game,” said one enthusiastic member. Mr. Pettit emphasized the club’s inclusive nature, stating, “We want students to feel welcome, regardless of their experience level.” The club encourages members to engage in friendly competition while honing their skills in painting and assembling 3D models, fostering creativity and teamwork.
In addition to regular meetings, the Warhammer 40K club plans to host various events, including an in-school competition and quizzes to test members’ knowledge of the game. Mr. Jones highlighted the importance of these activities, saying, “Our goal is to strengthen camaraderie among participants and promote a vibrant gaming culture within the school.” With its growing popularity, the club is poised to become a central hub for students interested in strategic gameplay and creative expression.
