Isaac – Living in North Shields

I like the skate park…. I love skating

 

I’ve lived in Park Crescent and Trevor Terrace.  I’m 10.

I like The Parks skate park.  I think it’s really fun to go there, I love skating as well, it’s a thing that I love I can do there.

[Interviewer: And do you go there fairly regularly would you say?]

Sometimes on weekends and then, when it’s not like this weather, after school sometimes.

[Interviewer: There’s lots of work happening in the centre of town and I wondered if you could think of anything else that you’d like to see?]

I’m quite happy with how North Shields is like.  The skate park could be a bit improved, there’s usually lots of scraps left there, but really, I like North Shields how it is.

[Interviewer: And do you know what you’d liked to do when you grow up?]

I’d like to be an artist.

[Interviewer: Do you do much art at the moment?]

Yes, loads.
