During Covid-19, I got creative for one of my tasks in VCAL. The task had to be a tower taller than me, so I decided to make the Eureka Tower. It got me to think what objects I had to use and things that I had to use to create the Eureka Tower. It got me to think outside the box and to be creative. It took time to create such a great piece of work and kept me busy during Isolation. I had my amazing family members who helped me to produce such a great piece."
