Duck Soup

What a lot of giggles we heard in Filmclub this week. When I first put on the Marx Brothers’ Classic, ‘Duck Soup’ the response was “No, boring a black and white!”. However, within minutes the room was bursting with laughter. Here are some of our fab reviews uploaded to the Filmclub website;

Duck Soup is a witty & FANTASTIC film. I won’t tell the plot because you have to see it in order to find out. My fave actor in the film was Groucho Marx because of his witty & comedic slapstick.
The cast was Groucho Marx, Harpo Marx, Chico Marx, Margaret Dumont and Zeppo Marx.
i would of given this wonderful epic comedic film IT’S OVER 9000! out of 10 but i can’t do that too so I have to give it 5/5

I liked the part where Chicolini dressed as the ambassador in his pajamas and broke the mirror he must’ve gotten 7 years of bad luck and did the old mirror trick pretending to be him and it was hilarious.

Well done both boys will receive their Reviews of the Week, and a golden acorn.

New timetables

8D have personalised their own timetables this week and today started to use them. The timetables are like books and pupils have decorated them with their favourite things.  The books have either words or symbols on the front to tell pupils what is happening next, and when it is finished they put the word or symbol inside and move onto the next thing.

Can you tell whose is whose?
