House Logos and Mascots
In 2008 a call was put out for students to choose an animal character to represent their House Group and for designs to be submitted. Quite a few were received and from the submitted designs, new logos were devised. Winners for the concept competition were - Jessica Whittle (Flame), Perth Sookwam (Pine) and Vicky Chuaybamrung (Jacaranda) They are the
These Logos will now be used to represent each of the House Groups in official correspondence, badges for House Captains, T-shirt prints and so on. August 7th 2008Following the design of the initial logos for the house groups it was decided to go and create entire mascot characters to represent each House Group. Teacher Sean Ellery was approached to design these as he has had a connection with the comic book industry. Mr Ellery first contacted a number of professional comic book artists that he knows in the industry. These included David Finch ( who has the X-Men to his credit), Jonboy Meyers (drawer of Spiderman) and Andie Tong (a Perth artist who has drawn He-Man: Masters of the Universe in the past). While David Finch wasn't available at all, Jonboy Meyers and Andie Tong offered to take on the commission - BUT! - Unfortunately they weren't available until mid-September due to their ongoing work committments, which was too late for us. Jonboy Meyers however recomended a person named Randy Kintz, who was also known to Mr Ellery, and when approached agreed to take on the job. Randy Kintz has drawn professionally for Bluewater Productions on the "Legend of Isis" series in the past. After a series of rough drafts, the final Black and White designs were approved and Mr Ellery then took on the job of colouring the pictures, which is his connection within the comic book industry. Once that job was done they could then be sent to the printers to be turned into the 3 metre high banners that can now be seen in the school Gym.
