Manaiakalani Film Festival

Manaiakalani Film Festival


On Wednesday Glenbrae School went to the cinemas to watch our class cluster movies. We made our way to the cinema on three buses to go to the Manaiakalani Film Festival.


On the bus, I saw lots of my friends houses on the way because we went the long way around Melbourne circle. I saw heaps of yellow cars driving past the bus. Moses and I played a game, the game was how to make people look at you. I saw a huge river when the bus went over the bridge.


When we got there, I saw three dogs following the bus. My Favorite was our schools short films. I saw room ten’s film and I saw my little brothers cluster and it was funny. Room nine didn't have a short film because our teacher had a broken arm at the time.


When it was time to go back to school, I saw a green bus and it was very flash. When we hopped on the bus we saw heaps of my rugby players especially Patrick.

The film festival was fun because I watched a lot of different short films from our school as well as different schools around auckland.

POPCORN

POPCORN
by Jill Macgregor
Walt Reviews Story We Read

The story is about a boy and a girl putting corn seed’s in a big brown bag and put it in the microwave so it can pop. After that, the leftover seeds are used to plant corns in a brown pot. After that, the kids went to measure the corn because the corn was outside, over a week. They grow corns so they can eat the corns. The tassels go into the pollen and the pollen goes to ear of the corn and the silks. Once the silk or the ear of the ear of the corn comes down, it goes to the stalk of the roots of the corn so it can grow faster. The top of the corn is called silk and the thing that is wrapped around, it is called the husk. The kernels or seeds are in the husk and we can eat it when the silks are brown or pink.
