Friday Review by Scott Kerry

I watched the movie Elizabeth I The Golden Age last Thursday with a group of friends. We watched it for a history project we're doing at school. It was a drama about Queen Elizabeth I. She was born in 1533 and became Queen of England in 1558. She was a really strong leader. Her ships won battles against Spanish ships in 1588. Before I watched it, I didn't know if I would like it. I don't like many dramas but this was fantastic. The story of the movie was really interesting and so many exciting things happened. It was great! All my friends loved it too. You really should watch it!

Last week, we watched Elizabeth – a historical drama about Queen Elizabeth I of England. I don’t always like drama movies but this was wonderful. Queen Elizabeth I was born in Greenwich on 7th September, 1533. Her mother died when she was only two years old. She was an intelligent child and she was really good at languages and music. When she was 25, she became Queen of England. She was a great leader. Elizabeth built a great navy – the army at sea. In 1588, the English Navy fought against the Spanish Armada invaders and they won the battles. People called this period the Golden Age because England was a very rich and powerful country. Elizabeth was queen for 44 years. She didn’t marry and had no children. She died in Richmond, England on 24th March, 1603.

"Water polo is a new sport at our school, but we have a good team now. We practise after school on Thursday at the Northside Pool and we're doing well in the National Schools Competition.

There are seven players in a water polo team. The game is a bit like football because each team tries to score a goal with a ball. But in water polo you don't use your feet - you catch and throw the ball with one hand. And you never stop swimming. A game lasts 32 minutes, and in that time you swim up and down a 30-metre pool lots of times. If you aren't fit, water polo isn't the sport for you!

For me, it's great, because I love being in the water and I can swim fast. I also enjoy being part of a team. We have some excellent players and we're all good friends. So it's fun, and it's also a fantastic way to get fit."
