Clarification on why I made my own Bullseye banner.
Clarification on why I made my own Bullseye banner.
In March 2016, Mr Aram S. Katz, the head of History, gave a coursework for History. The coursework required the students to design a World War I propaganda poster to promote aid for the war. The poster can be based on the Allied or Axis Powers, and was due on Monday, 28th March 2016.
I did my History poster and finished it within a week and handed them in early. However, I had an idea. I should replicate the initiative for Bullseye to encourage Bullseye members during the Sports Day. So, I drew a poster complete with a flag and lightsaber. The flag represented Bullseye while the lightsaber represented the other houses and the theme 'Rise of the Empires'.
Before I drew the poster, I spoke with Jason Leing and Sean Mark about the idea, and they encouraged me to go ahead and replicate it for Bullseye as they, too, were taking History as well. Then, when I presented the poster to the Bullseye members, everyone agreed except Sabrina Qistina, the house captain of Bullseye, who said it looked like propaganda. Sabrina said I might risk being barred from the marchpast if I displayed the banner and told me not to bring it to Sports Day 2016. I heeded the advice and kept the banner at home.
When 2017 rolled around, I designed the 2017 banner and presented the design to Sean Mark. I just drew a red flag and put the history of all the house cheers on it, and Sean Mark approved of it. The red flag was stylized to look like a display from the communist party congresses of communist countries, but however, no one took notice of it. Little did I know I was starting an annual tradition of drawing a banner for Sports Day.
