Mosha The Elephant

Today for this activity we needed to design a unique prosthetic leg for Mosha.  A elephant that stood on a landmine losing one of her legs, she was only 7 months old when this happened, people thought she wouldn’t make it but other people came togather to create her a new prosthetic leg.

I used this colours to represent one of the habitats for elephant “African Safari” I also drew siluets of other animals that would normally live there as while.

  1. Kia ora Donyal,

    It is wonderful to meet another Year 7 student from Panmure Bridge School! I can see you have a very clear goal to become a school leader in 2026, which is a fantastic ambition to work toward.

    Your design for Mosha’s prosthetic leg is very thoughtful. I was moved by the fact you shared about her being only 7 months old when she lost her leg to a landmine. Using the “African Safari” theme for the habitat and including silhouettes of other animals is a creative way to make the prosthetic feel like part of her natural world.

    I noticed you mentioned a bird silhouette on the leg, what other animals did you decide to include in your “African Safari” design?

    Keep up the great blogging, Zana Yates (SLJ Team)

  2. Bonjour, Donyal

    Thank you for sharing your learning from this meaningful activity. Designing a unique prosthetic leg for Mosha was a thoughtful and compassionate task. I appreciated how you explained Mosha’s story and how people worked together to help her after losing her leg at such a young age. This shows empathy and an understanding of why helping animals is important.

    I also liked how you chose colours to represent the African safari habitat and included silhouettes of other animals that live there. This added creativity and strong visual meaning to your design. Your post clearly explains your ideas and shows pride in your work. You did an excellent job—keep up the great learning!
