NIm's Island at Kids film club, 17th September and Art trail thanks

We will be screening Nim's Island this Saturday, doors open at 10 a.m for crafts at The Orford road Social Club.

A young girl living on a tropical island with her scientist father is left to fend for herself after her dad's boat leaves him stranded far away and careless tour companies wreak havoc on the secluded paradise in directors Mark Levin and Jennifer Flackett's adaptation of the popular children's book by author Wendy Orr. Realizing that she will need adult assistance if she truly hopes to save her home, the resourceful youngster soon begins exchanging e-mails with the author of a book she has been reading. Nim's Island stars Little Miss Sunshine's Abigail Breslin, as well as Jodie Foster and Gerard Butler. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi. Runs for 1 hr. 35 min.

collected natural and man made objects.
Displayed as a chest of drawers filled with curiosities. Each drawer can be opened to reveal our finds on our. The artwork is a reflection of the children’s view of their local environment; identifying their favourite
