4 Creative Classrooms Each year we run a programme of large scale art projects during which hundreds of children and young people get to work with professional artists making art of all kinds. Their work is then on display during the festival. This part of the programme is all about what they have been doing and where you can see the beautiful work they have created. Admission to all exhibitions is free. Turn the page to see what Sheffield’s children and young people have created this year.

5 Tales from a Tommy History lives on with this imaginative project designed by Griffin Theatre Arts to commemorate the centenary of the start of World War I. Professional actor practitioners have delivered in-role living history sessions re-creating characters from local and wider UK history and exploring different aspects of World War I including a tale from a soldier and the home front. The sessions have created an exciting springboard for the children to create their own visual art, creative writing and literacy work inspired by what they have experienced. A selection of the work produced by each school will be displayed as part of Sheffield Children’s Festival as follows: Date Sunday 22 - Thursday 26 June Display in Winter Garden, Tudor Square, Sheffield 1 Monday 23 - Friday 27 June Display in Central Lending Library, Surrey Street, Sheffield 1 Time Normal opening times for both venues Thank you to the staff and children at the following schools for taking part: Prince Edward Primary, Ecclesall C of E Junior, Southey Green Primary, St. Theresa’s Catholic Primary, Talbot Specialist School

6 Re-inventing the Wheel It’s a very special year for Yorkshire with the Tour de France Grand Depart coming to the region. To celebrate this arts practitioner Jenny Seymour has worked with children to create beautiful pieces of visual art shaped like old fashioned bicycle wheels with spokes. As well as learning about the visit of the Tour de France to Sheffield, children have also discussed what is special about where they live and have created a picture of a favourite place - their home, their school, a park. Each picture has been placed within their group’s bicycle wheel so that the end result is a colourful representation of the local area on two wheels which you can view during Sheffield Children’s Festival. Date Tuesday 17 - Saturday 21 June Time Normal Opening Hours Venue Winter Garden, Tudor Square, Sheffield 1 Thank you to the staff and children at the following schools for taking part: Clifford C of E Infant, St. Thomas More Catholic Primary, Monteney Primary

7 Garden Up: The Sculpture Trail Sheffield’s Botanical Gardens are the inspiration for this project to create a fantastic series of sculptures forming a sculpture trail through the Botanical Gardens. The trail will be launched as part of a major event, Garden Up, to be held at the gardens on 7 and 8 June 2014 and will remain in situ throughout the summer. Artist and sculptor Lucy Coyne has worked with schools helping them create unique sculptures to be suspended or ‘rooted’ along the trail in the gardens. Pupils have used materials including wire, metal sheet, yarns and recycled materials and techniques such as wirework, weaving, and printing. The inspiration has come from the plants, trees and wildlife found in the Botanical Gardens and the incredible details, textures and structures of the natural world. Date from 7 June and on show throughout the summer Time Normal Opening Hours Venue Botanical Gardens, Clarkehouse Road, Sheffield 10 Thank you to the staff and children at the following schools for taking part: Porter Croft C of E Primary Academy, Forge Valley Community, Bents Green, Westfield, Fox Hill Primary

Our thanks go to the following in kind sponsors for their support of this project:

8 Roman Sheffield In the year 43 AD the Romans invaded Britain. By 47 AD they had settled and built a fort at Templeborough to guard an important supply route - a Roman road that ran through Sheffield. Sheffield and the surrounding areas were important to the Romans and over the years many Roman artifacts have been found including coins, pottery and bronze sculptures of animals. Having learnt about Roman Sheffield and seen some actual Roman artifacts each child has made a miniature Roman style animal figurine which looks as if it is made from bronze, silver or gold. Working with artist Richard Johnson of Kidology Arts, the children have used special paints, patinas and aging effects to make their figurine look 2000 years old. The animals have been arranged as a large scale sculptural installation resembling a wonderful archaeological find. This display will be shown as one of the first exhibitions in the newly refurbished Sheffield Cathedral. Date Tuesday 17 - Sunday 22 June Time Normal Opening Times Venue Sheffield Cathedral, Church Street, Sheffield 1 Thank you to the staff and children at the following schools for taking part: Byron Wood Primary, Ecclesall C of E Junior Patients of Sheffield Children’s Hospital, in conjunction with Artfelt at The Children’s Hospital Charity
