Their challenge incorporated the president’s theme for the year of ‘Embracing Change’ as members were tasked with creating an insect house using the materials provided in a 90 minute time frame.

The teams were made up of four members from the various clubs across the county and the creativity levels were on show as the end results ranged from insect houses to hotels.
