*Alice and Oisin are in the school auditorium. Oisin is wearing a top hat and a cape. Alice has a football. *
NARRATOR: Hello Oisin! Hey Alice! What are you up to?
*Alice does a couple of keepy-uppies with her football. *
ALICE: We鈥檙e getting ready for the school talent show! I鈥檓 going to do 100 keepy-uppies in a row!
*She misses the ball and it rolls away. *
ALICE: Umm, I鈥檝e just got to do a bit more practice鈥
OISIN: I鈥檓 going to do some magic tricks!
*Oisin takes off his hat and pulls a bunch of flowers from it. Alice claps in excitement. *
NARRATOR: Wow! You two are both very talented! Did you know that Christians believe God gives them their talents? For Christians, it鈥檚 important to use them to help others.
Cut to a doctor looking at an X-ray, a chef holding a frying pan and a teacher at a white board.
NARRATOR: There are lots of different things to be good at. A doctor is very good at helping sick people get better. A chef is good at making tasty and healthy meals. Your teacher is very good at teaching you new things! We can all learn from people like these so we can help and respect ourselves and everyone around us.
*Cut back to the auditorium. Oisin is wearing his hat again and Alice has her football. *
OISIN: And what about our talents? Can we help people?
NARRATOR: Yes of course - you鈥檙e both very good at making people smile and feel happy, myself included!
Alice starts her keepy-uppies again.
ALICE: Great, well I better keep practising!
*Alice misses the ball and it hits Oisin鈥檚 hat, knocking it off. A rabbit leaps out and bounds across the hall. *
OISIN: Hey! Fluffy! Come back here!
