Draw My Life - The Manaiakalani Film Festival

Hello my name is Jordan. 

I made a movie called "Draw My Life".

My movie is about my school life and things I like to do.

  1. Jordan thank you for drawing your life. I enjoyed finding out about the different places that you have been to learn. It is so good that you are happy at Edgewater. I like feeding birds too. When I see a tui in the trees at my house I am very happy.

  18. Hi Jordan.

    I really liked watching your movie. It was very inspirational.

    I could relate this movie to what I was like before I came to Sommerville. I too also found it tough making new friends at my old school because I didn't understand what the students and teachers there were saying. Again, a really good job on your Draw my Life movie!

  20. Malo Lelei Jordan, your movie was really emotional because of how the kids treated you in Primary and what they did was unacceptable and not good manners. However, I enjoyed observing your film and also I love your drawings. Although I am so glad that you've found a school where you feel love and caring people around. Well Done and Keep up the awesome work!

  30. Hi there Jordon, We at Sommerville are very proud of what you have achieved this year. I showed your movie to the Board of Trustees tonight and they were blown away by the story you told and the pictures you drew. They asked me to congratulate you on being so brave and for trusting us with your learning. On Monday I showed your movie at a conference of New Zealand Special School Principals. They asked me lots of questions about your story and were very interested in how you made your movie. They suggested I send the link to the Minister of Education. How do you feel about that? Keep up the good work. Di Hankins, Principal, Sommerville

  43. Hi I am Elise and I go to St Francis of Assisi School.
    I liked the drawings, they were very cute. The lighting changed A LOT.Maybe the talking could have been a little more clear, loud and a little more slow. Good job. How long did it take you to draw all those drawings?

  44. Kia Ora Jordan. Asfan here from Owairaka school. That movie was amazing. I had similar problems but I loved every teacher but sometimes you get angry at them but it is ok. Your drawings remind me of mine drawing that I did with my sister. What was the best part in the drawing?.
    Blog you later,
    Asfan.
