Right after school three students from Sekolah Rendah Tungku had a chance to attend the Australian Film Festival which was held in a cinema at Empire Theatre. They were all Year 5 students namely Abdul Hassan from 5C, Aqil Azka from 5B and Aiman Hafizzat from 5A.
They claimed that going to the Empire cinema was their first time to watch a movie on a big screen. It was their first experience ever given from the school, which originally organised by the Ministry of Education in support of the Australian Film Festival occasion, perhaps. The students were exposed to an English movie so that they could learn English informally by just watching, listening and imitate the actions and dialogues from the movie.
They, as observed and told by an accompanied teacher Mohammad Zul Ariffin bin Haji Ibrahim, were very joyful at the place as it was their first time to be in the Empire Cinema building itself.
Upon arrival at 1.30 pm, tickets were made available by the persons-in-charge to the students as well as to other students from other schools. The movie titled Storm Boy played at 2 pm. It was a story of a 10 year old boy called Storm Boy who lived near a coast in Australia with his father who only worked as a fisherman. Their living condition was poor and Storm Boy never went to school until a female teacher came to their isolated house for an offer to the boy that he had the right to be given formal education like other children do. Storm boy was adapted to his living condition and made friends with wild birds, the three pelicans which he reared them since they were still babies. He also had a black-man friend, seemed to be an Australian aborigine who taught him all about the harsh life.
The movie finished at about 3.30 pm. Too early to go home, the kids were given chance to have their time at Berakas Forest Reserve and Recreation Park. They played the swings and filled in the questionaire forms previously given to them about the Storm Boy movie they had watched previously.
