Above:  The winning banner, produced by 1061.

On the first day of school, the lucky Year 10s were suprised with brand new form classes. To get to know each other better, we had an interclass competition in which we had to make the best class poster, with the criteria of using collage and communicating a sense of community.

There was sweat, there were tears and (of course) the insane amount of lunchtimes spent in the rush to finish them. Each class had a different structure and a different perspective. We saw lots of wrongly coloured crests, cubes, villages, textiling and heaps of more awesome, yet kooky, ideas. The hurridly-finished posters were then judged by the supreme teachers who were Ms Greenaway and Ms Munro.

In the end, Room 1061 took the title of champion poster makers.  Second was 1024 and third 1011.

See all the banners.
