School play gets airtime<br />
LEESTON Consolidated School<br />
pupils have let their creative<br />
juices flow writing an original<br />
play.<br />
After a couple of sessions with<br />
the School For Young Writers<br />
the pupils spent five hours<br />
rehearsing their play which was<br />
aired on Plains FM recently.<br />
How World War 3 Happened<br />
Because of a Paper Clip tells the<br />
story of a girl called Gabby, the<br />
daughter of the prime minister<br />
who reveals top secret information<br />
during a speech competition.<br />
The speech, which was livestreamed,<br />
did not end well<br />
because the information would<br />
have been misinterpreted by the<br />
audience in Japan.<br />
Gabby and her friends have<br />
to stop the information from<br />
reaching Japan to prevent World<br />
War 3.<br />

Two pupils from the school<br />
won the overall trophy for the<br />

Lincoln Envirotown Trust<br />
chairwoman Dr Sue Jarvis said it<br />
was a simple but effective video<br />
featuring an eel puppet made out<br />
of an old sock.<br />
She said the video clearly<br />
outlined what people can do to<br />
save the eels.<br />

individuals that had put their<br />
filmmaking skills into showing<br />
their concerns and actions relating<br />
