Celebrating INTO Film Club (under 11 years old) of The Year!!

12th November 2020N Noble

Download (PDF, 193KB)

Brad said:

“I’m lost for words…  This is an extraordinary achievement. I can’t thank the parents, the teachers and staff enough for this! This is something the school should treasure for how long it is an education establishment. Everybody in the club thanks you all for giving us the chance to achieve this.

When we found out the club couldn’t make it to London because of coronavirus, we were devastated, appalled and furious. We thought INTO Film Awards had been cancelled and we had lost our chance at winning… until this morning when we watched the Virtual Award Ceremony and won!

The club is bamboozled in the sight of winning one of the biggest award shows in The UK! Mrs Baxter, our film club teacher, supported us in the pursuit of winning the award and becoming the best under 11’s film club in the UK. She helped us with basic animation, flip books and many more astonishing activities!

What I remember from the film club last year, is the smiling and bright faces of the children involved and the teachers knowing that they had created something that enhanced over time. This film club has inspired me to reach new heights with art and many more subjects which I did not think I would like!

This film club is not about coming in and watching movies every week!

This film club is not about the popcorn or the food and drink!

This film club is about ambition, inspiration, and mental, physical drive. Pushing you to your limits, creating imaginations within the children young or old, using subjects from the primary curriculum and making it into humorous work  which makes the pupils want to work and achieve the highest they can. This is not a club. This is a community.”

This message was received from INTO Film:

Congratulations on winning an Into Film Award for Club of the Year 11 and Under!

We hope you’re pleased and enjoyed the online screening of the ceremony. You can watch the full screening again here: https://vimeo.com/476214487

We’ve also published an article on our website including all the winners: https://www.intofilm.org/news-and-views/articles/into-film-awards-2020-winners and announced on our social media channels!

The club members, Mrs Burden and Mrs Gilmore met with Mrs Baxter and Mrs Moore today and received some bags stuffed full of goodies as well as a superb trophy!

INTO Film Feel Good Films to support Mental Health Awareness Week

20th May 2020N Noble

This year Mental Health Awareness Week is perhaps more important and timely than ever. In honour of the 2020 theme, we’re giving the gift of kindness with our latest batch of recommended films for younger viewers. From family comedies to toe-tapping musicals, these feel-good films offer comfort viewing and plenty to spark the imagination.

All selected titles are available to stream from home, or use your own DVD in school where possible. Our accompanying film guides can be used to lead informal discussion at home or in the classroom.

CLICK HERE TO FIND OUT MORE…

As schools remain closed, and we continue to find ourselves in uncertain times due to coronavirus/COVID-19, it can be difficult to settle into new routines and cope with the draining nature of constant uncertainty and confusion. What can be helpful is to carve out some time for rest, or laughter, or to simply find a way to switch off from these difficult circumstances for a while. To help you out, and to mark Mental Health Awareness Week (18-24 May), here are some great feel-good films that you can stream at home to take your mind off of everything else for a while.

For ages 5-11: My Neighbour Totoro

A magical and absorbing tale of two sisters exploring the countryside around their new home and meeting some furry friends. Ideal inspiration for our Nature in Your Neighbourhood filmmaking competition.

When Satsuki and her little sister Mei move to their countryside with their dad, they must find new places to play and to keep busy. Exploring their new home and the forest surrounding it, they discover friendly spirits are all around them. The giant and furry Totoro takes them on a magical cat bus that allows the sisters to deal with some of the difficult emotions they are facing in their lives. This is wonderful introduction to Japanese animation that shows the potential of imagination.

INTO Film Home Learning

30th March 2020N Noble

Education charity Into Film has a pack of useful teaching tools to help children of all ages with literacy, creative writing, critical thinking, film making and other skills to continue to learn while the schools are closed.

Click here to access a range of their film guides.

Into Film is a UK-wide organisation with a regional hub in Northern Ireland, which aims to put film at the heart of children and young people’s education, helping to support their academic, cultural, and social development.

Sean Kelly of Into Film said: “This will be a difficult time for families, and we want to make our resources and support freely available to everyone.

“These activities will provide help for teachers and parents by providing simple, easy and useful tasks that young people can complete unaided.

Among other things, our activities will give young people the ability to turn any film or television viewing into an educational experience.”

The activities include writing film reviews, exploring film genres, curating cinema programmes and making your own movie.

Into Film’s review writing guides can help young people apply their film knowledge, critical thinking and literacy skills to any film, providing a valuable and entertaining means of honing their English and writing skills.

Young people can also submit their review to the Into Film website for entry in the Review of the Week competition.

There are great prizes to be won including film prizes and family cinema vouchers to help support cinemas when they reopen.

Online activities also encourage and support young people to make films that can be done on a mobile phone or tablet.

And, its ongoing Film of the Month competition offers the perfect way for young people to keep busy with a practical project that can be completed within the home, enhancing various skills including organisation, planning, Information Technology and creative thinking.

Into Film’s aim is to support as many teachers and parents as possible in the coming weeks, by keeping children intellectually stimulated and entertained.

Dunn Street Primary School in Jarrow, near Newcastle, recently took pupils from each year group to the Into Film Festival, and HLTA Mrs Baxter got in touch to explain the wide-reaching impact of their Festival visits and the Into Film offer in general. She also told us how her Into Film Club went about raising money to help pay for students’ travel expenses.

Into Film’s Daniel Jarvis recently visited Dunn Street to see their Into Film Club in action. “I had the privilege of visiting Dunn Street Primary School and it was a pleasure to see Mrs Baxter’s Into Film Club in action. All of the club members were engaged with the review tasks Mrs Baxter set the group, with the older members helping the young ones with their film reviews. There was a real sense that the club was a big part of the school, a club that the children got so much from.”

Well done to all members of the club and thanks to Mrs Baxter and Mrs Moore for their hard work and dedication to get the club to this point…

We will let you know how we get on in the middle of March!!

KS2 Gardening and Gardening Club – UPDATE

18th September 2019N Noble

Now that the ground work has been done by the pupils, Y4/5 will have a full gardening afternoon 19th and 26th September.   Y5/6 will garden the afternoons of 3rd and 10th October and Y3/4 will garden the afternoons of 17th and 24th October.

Due to the change in the weather, and in an effort to keep mess to a minimum, when your child is gardening, ideally, they will have a pair of wellies AND A BAG in which to keep them and at the very least an old pair of shoes or boots AND A BAG in which to keep them.  This means that hopefully mud will be kept outside and not brought into school!
