Last night Grandtully School Community came together to celebrate a successful first term at school, share some delicious home grown food and watch P1-5’s film, Freddie’s New Adventure. P1-5 came up with the idea of describing what it was like on your first day at school after being inspired by the Pixar film, ‘Inside Out’. There are lots of skills involved in making a film and everybody tried out a whole range of different roles and contributed to the final 10 minute film. We learned about different jobs along the way too. Dylan Gibson, a local illustrator talked to us about the importance of storyboards and planning, then Francesca and Ricardo Bernasconi, who have their own film production company, told us all about the different jobs you have to do to make sure your film comes together the way you would like it to. We wanted to serve food at our event so we asked Lio and Chris, two of our Dad’s who are chefs to come in and advise us on how to make soup and bread. We had other super parents in to help us manage the big task of catering, thanks to Francesca and Amalie for lending a hand. We would also like to thank everyone who came along to watch our film and all the lovely feedback we got, we really enjoyed making it.
