THE SCREEN MACHINE.

Sometimes a cinema comes to the island. It is called the Screen Machine.The Screen Machine is a portable cinema that goes round the whole of Scotland. It comes to Islay because we don’t have a proper cinema on the island. It’s a van that has a big screen and loads of seats in it so when you go in it feels like a miniature cinema! When it comes it parks outside the Ramsey Hall in Port Ellen but sometimes it parks in the school playground! That means we get to go in and watch a movie with the rest of the school. On Friday we are going to see Arthur Christmas so we’re all really happy and excited. Right now it’s showing  The Hobbit, Skyfall, Paranorman and Arthur Christmas. I really like  the Screen Machine because it feels really weird sitting in a huge van watching a movie.

  1. That sounds like a really good idea because how else are you going to get to see films? Is there more than one van on the island and does it cost loads to get in there? I wish there was one over here. 🙂

  2. That sounds like fun to watch a movie inside a van I wish our school had a screen machine so I could watch a movie in a van with all of my school friends.
    We also have fun things at our school like we have an outdoor playarea.

  3. That sounds awesome to sit in a van and watch a movie. I don\’t go to the cinema very often because there isn’t a cinema near me like you and your schhol.
