SCHOOL WARS X TMNT SMASH UP CHALLENGE - 23RD OCTOBER @ VILLAGE UNDERGROUND

On the 23rd October, Monorex hosted the first ever large scale School Wars finals - This at first seemed like a logistical nightmare with the limited time we had to set up and recruit 16 schools. But with lots of hard work from everyone involved and the huge support from our lovely sponsors Ubisoft, edding, Reebok and Suso.

The whole event was one massive experiment but one that went really well! I am proud to say all the students and schools involved expressed how much fun they had... Quotes and interviews coming soon.

We arranged for Pizza Express Shoreditch to cook us 100 pizza's! A huge challenge for them but one they did in under an hour...

Pizza was obviously selected because it's the Turtles favorite food.

Stika showing a student a few tips

"It's an amazing project that not only entertains the kids but opens their eye's to the idea of 'going BIG'. Most of the young people involved never really get the chance to draw or paint on a large scale because of classroom restrictions, but School Wars can offer the wall space, big juicy markers and guidance that's needed to produce these large pieces." - STIKA

The prizes supplied by our generous sponsors:

Ubisoft - 5 X Wii machines (one for each winning team member) + a copy of the Turtles Smash Up game each.

Reebok - A fresh pair of Reebok kicks from the exclusive Reebok lounge

Edding - A range of pens and drawing equipment

And the famous golden marker pen medals (hand made) with an extra special trophy for the School cabinet!

School Wars x TMNT Special Event - October 23rd

We are proud to announce a special "one off" School Wars art challenge will take place on the 23rd October @ The Village Underground, Shoreditch.

The event will host 16 schools from around the country and will run across a full working day (9am till 7pm)! The students that will be taking part will vary in age groups and will battle in school teams for a place in the grand final.

The theme and challenge of this event will be loosely based around the Teenage Ninja Turtles, celebrating its anniversary and new game release "Smash Up".

Monorex crew will be commissioned to paint the large wall of fame out of the front of the venue - watch out for this as it will look amazing!

Sponsored and supported by Ubisoft, edding and Reebok
