Mascot House Challenge - By Lyan

In week 7 - 8, there was a Mascot Challenge for the houses, which are Shelford, Setu, Turner and lastly Lewis.  We had to build a mascot that represents not only your house but Mana Horomaka and many more.  There was also a challenge on how many people can participate or just watch.

My house was Shelford, Mr Mitchell and many other people from Shelford shred their ideas for us to create an amazing mascot, although some parts of it look creepy.  Here are some pictures  of  the event, Please Enjoy!
