From Boots To Books : The Story of the Magic Doctor- St. Luke's P.S., Belfast

The 33 children of Mr. K. Shannon P6 class at St. Luke's Primary in Twinbrook, Belfast, came up with this story based on one they were studying at the time. As one half of this year's SEELB Digital Literacy project, St. Luke's took two days out of each of 8 weeks to complete the script, artwork, acting and animation for this film.

The other half of the project is in Ballyhalbert's, Glastry College and will be completed within the month of June as most post primary's can not take as much time out of their routine scheduled roster of subjects to spend a whole day on just one project. Yet, the cross-curricular advantages of filmmaking are still enjoyed when the proper incentives are in place. The schools are acquiring equipment to continue their filmmaking pursuits after I'm long gone!
