School holidays are once again almost here and if you are looking for ways to "entertain" your children, here is a great idea!



Take them to a magical movie matinee to create some excitement and this is aimed at raising awareness and funds for "Sponsor a Teacher" in Cambodia programme. The SCOOP Australia Foundation is a Perth based not-for-profit organisation supporting teachers and children out of poverty in India and Cambodia by providing them with access to education.

The movie is this year's feel-good film which reminds us to "be strong, brave and true to yourself" and Ferdinand inspired the world by being himself.



All profits from the movie screening will go towards paying the wages for three teachers at SCAO Cambodia. Your support will impact the lives of teachers and children at these schools.

[b]ABOUT THE MOVIE**
Ferdinand tells the story of a giant bull with a big heart!



After being mistaken for a dangerous beast, he is captured and dragged from his home. Determined to return to his family, he rallies a misfit team on the ultimate adventure.



The movie is set in Spain and Ferdinand goes on to proves you can't judge a bull by its cover. John Cena voices Ferdinand, a gentle bull who is captured by bullfighters because of his large size and taken away from his human family to participate in Spanish bull-fighting and goes on an adventure to return home.

However, because he hates violence, the bull decides he must escape with the help of some animal allies.

From Blue Sky Studios and Carlos Saldanha, the director of "Rio" and inspired by the beloved book "The Story of Ferdinand" written by Munro Leaf and Robert Lawson, "Ferdinand" is a heartwarming animated comedy adventure with an all-star cast that includes the voices of John Cena, Kate McKinnon, Gina Rodriguez, Anthony Anderson, Bobby Cannavale, Peyton Manning, Miguel Angel Silvestre, David Tennant, Flula Borg, Jerrod Carmichael, Daveed Diggs, Gabriel Iglesias, Juanes, Boris Kodjoe, Karla Martínez, Jeremy Sisto, and Sally Phillips.

The movie is a family comedy, is great fun for both young and old, and is directed by Carlos Saldanha.
