The Glockenspeil

by Jaydene Transom, Aged 8 years, Room 19

In Stratford there is a glockenspiel. It is a musical clock. It is special because it is part of William Shakespeare. The people painted it black and white. There are models inside called Romeo and Juliet. They come out of the windows and then they come out of a door and they get married.
Romeo and Juliet come out at 10 am, 1 pm at lunchtime and 3 pm. They also open the windows. The person who opens the windows is Juliet.
The Glockenspiel is special to me because it's New Zealand's only glockenspiel.
