  1. Hi year 5/6 extension,

    My name is Eleni and I’m from room 7 at Pt England school. I really enjoyed your movie because of how Kensi never gave up and kept believing in herself. It was also amazing when her friends kept encouraging her and made sure that she was okay.

    My name is Kolotita and I’m a year 7. The first thing I need to say is what great song chooses. The songs were one of my favorite parts of this film. Great singing too. I loved how supportive the kids were about Kensi being nerves over a test. What good friends! Well done, Extension.

    I really liked your movie because it is so relatable to me because sometimes when i have a test i can feel so much pressure and I really get nervous that i am going to get a low score. The one thing i love is how your friends helped you to not feel any pressure about your test. And that what i loved about your movie. Well done Yr 5&6 Extension Thank you for making this wonderful movie. 🙂

  20. Hi Year 5&6 Extension, my name is Zaria and I love your movie and it’s so cool how this is something lots of kids go through (including me).

    Thank you for bringing me along to this one! I did not expect to like it half as much as I did. I enjoyed your movie very much and I can’t wait to see what you come up for next year! That was a really good movie, I was not expecting it to be that good, and I’m so glad I took the time to see this.

    This movie is such a good way to show how important is is to overcome pressure because it help you learn, the ability to respond effectively to pressure and stress is therefore extremely important in any line of work.

    Kindest Regards

  27. Hi extension class. First of all well done Ms West. You always go above and beyond in these films. The message that was relayed in this movie about pressure is also in my adult life. Its good to have a reminder that when things get hectic we have each other and having great friends and family for support is the best thing ever. Well done to my little not so little girl kensi and all her friends in this movie. The singing was so cute and the acting very funny and sad. Awesome job everyone!

  28. Hi CreativeSpace my name is Perseus
    This is a great movie that you did CreativeSpace!
    I love the massage that you have done.
    and I love the songs you guys are doing.
    my favourite song had to be Under the Surface,
    what a GREAT movie! keep it up!

  29. Hi Miss West
    I really like this movie and the song choices that you have chosen. It was really cool seeing some of the kids helping Kensi over coming pressure and helping her get through her test.
