Become the first Junior Model Builder on the Sunshine Coast

To be in the running, children — with the help of a parent or guardian — will submit a recreation of their favourite aquatic animal out of LEGO. You can submit your creation as a photograph. Kids can also submit a video if they want to show more of their personality.

You can enter via their Facebook page. Be sure to include the details of your LEGO creation, your name and age.

There will be six finalists. They’ll spend a morning at The Wharf Mooloolaba enjoying access to the Brickman Cities powered by LEGO® City exhibition. They will also meet and greet the Master Model Builder from Melbourne’s LEGOLAND® Discovery Centre.

Ryan ‘The Brickman’ McNaught will virtually judge the final Brick Builder competition.

“We are excited to be launching the Sunshine Coast’s first-ever Junior Model Builder competition!” LEGOLAND® Discovery Centre’s Master Model Builder, Miller Keys, says. “This competition is about fun and creativity, so we look forward to seeing all the creative ways the kids recreate their favourite aquatic creatures.”
