Wonka movie review by James
What is Wonka about?
It is where the Charlie and Chocolate Factory story all begins. How Willie Wonka became the legendary candy man. It starts at the beginning, before the factory was built, he had a chocolate shop called Wonka’s Chocolate. Arthur Slugworth is a bad person who owns a shop across the road and doesn’t like Wonka. He tries to get Wonka to close his shop and leave town. One night Willie meets an Oompa Loompa, who says Willie Wonka owes him chocolate because he took cocoa beans from his island.
Why do you love it?
Because it shows the magic and believing in people no matter who they are and where they are from. Showing respect for each other.
Why should people watch the movie?
Watch Wonka and believe in the magic and have fun. It is like pure imagination and believe in yourself.
DRINK
Tea reviews by Kylie
After a busy day, sit back and relax. Chamomile, Honey, and Vanilla provide a warm hug, a soft effect from the floral to smooth sweetness. It's a delightful cup of Zen.
Canberra Breakfast tea, how have I just discovered this?
It contains the same DNA as an oatmeal cookie.
I enjoy the coconut flavour, and it's incredible!
Matcha lovers must try Ito En Sweet Matcha Green Tea. A choice of biscuit on its side, try a butterscotch or melting moment. The quality has an earthy flavour, and the price itself is good.
French Earl Grey places high in teas I like to introduce to friends. A gentle aroma of black tea, petals, and bergamot. If I can paintbrush the flavour, I imagine a harp playing tunes and long tables of the finest cakes.

I like to paint because I’m sharing a connection to colours. I can enjoy working on a piece for hours. I’m inspired to allow what is on my mind and show on papers. Art is beautiful and interesting.

Moseley Square
Moseley Square is a place at Glenelg where you can get several different types of food from different restaurants. At the Square there is also a tram stop which makes getting to Glenelg convenient. Sometimes there are events on and in the summer there is a big Ferris Wheel. The Square is easy to find as it is located at the very end of Jetty Road.

Glenelg Esplanade
The Glenelg Esplanade is a very nice area to go for a walk down by the beach and has an amazing view of the ocean. Sometimes it can be busy with young families and cyclists, especially if the weather is nice. Walking on the Esplanade is one of my favourite things to do at Glenelg.
Dymocks
Dymocks is a bookshop which also sells gifts and other things like calendars. However most of the books can be expensive. I sometimes visit Dymocks if I have time or if I am nearby.

It is located at the corner of Broadway and South Esplanade Glenelg SA 5045.
Mockingbird Lounge
The Mockingbird Lounge is one of my favourite places to go to when I am at Glenelg due to the fact that it both a bookshop and a cafe at the same time. This cafe/book place is open from 10am until 4pm everyday of the week. This place is located at 68 Broadway, Glenelg South SA 5045.

Sipping on cocoa, feeling just right, chasing the chill with all of my might. Winter blues don’t stand a chance.
As I warm up with my favourite drink, I’ll dance! So here’s to hot drinks that make us feel fine, cozy and happy in wintertime!
