Southbank Centre's Imagine Children's Festival Returns And Date: Wednesday 16 October, 2019, 10am Contact: Phoebe Gardiner, [email protected] / 020 7921 0967 Images: here Southbank Centre’s Imagine Children's Festival returns and makes hundreds of children published authors More than 1,400 primary school children from London and the south of England will become published authors through the Imagine a Story creative writing project, announced today as part of Southbank Centre’s Imagine Children’s Festival . From 12 - 23 February 2020 the UK’s leading children’s festival, Imagine, returns to Southbank Centre for its nineteenth year with twelve days of the highest-quality international performance, music, literature, comedy, creativity, parties, participation and free fun for children aged 0-11 and their grownups. The full programme will be announced on 2 December. Culminating at the festival is Imagine a Story : a nationwide creative writing project provided for free to primary schools and teachers devised by Southbank Centre and delivered with author Sharna Jackson ( High-Rise Mystery , Sunday Times Children’s Book of the Week), illustrator Dapo Adeola (Look Up!; The Last Last Day of Summer ) and Brixton-based publishers and founders of #BooksMadeBetter, Knights Of . In a giant ‘game of consequences’, each of the 33 participating schools – from a state school in Herefordshire to an international school in Westminster – writes one chapter of a story, responding to a brief outlined by Jackson. Once compiled, the completed novel will be illustrated by Adeola and professionally printed and published by Knights Of. More than 1,400 children are taking part in the project from now until Christmas. Each one of them becomes a published author, their names printed in the final book which will be on sale at the festival and provided for free to each participating school library. All children will also receive a free copy, and are invited to hear their story performed at Southbank Centre’s Imagine Children’s Festival in February. The project aims to inspire and support children as creative writers, as well as support teachers to guide creative writing in the classroom. It also aims to address the chronic lack of diversity in children’s publishing, highlighted in the Centre for Literacy in Primary Education (CLPE) report which found that just 1% of children’s books published in the UK in 2017 featured a BAME main character. Jessica Santer, Head of Creative Learning, Southbank Centre, says: “ At Southbank Centre, we believe every child has the right to a creative and cultural education, and that it is essential for children's development and wellbeing. We want children to feel a sense of ownership of creativity: not just to witness and enjoy it, but to hold it in their hands, and pass it on to friends, parents, even their own children. I magine a Story p uts their name in print, alongside professionals and hundreds of their peers, and empowers children to believe that everyone has important stories to tell .” Author Sharna Jackson says: “I 'm thrilled to be the lead author on I magine a Story with Southbank Centre this year, collaborating with over 1,400 young writers. Creative writing can be brilliant for communication and confidence building in young people, and I'm incredibly excited to see where our story goes. ” Bronwen Smith, Assistant Headteacher at Stockwell Primary School in Lambeth , says: “T he Imagine a Story project is a truly transformational opportunity for me and the children I teach. Working directly with a writer gives me insight into how an author approaches the creative writing process, and helps me create an environment in school where the children's writing just flows as an expression of their excitement and enjoyment. Having their finished words read out at Southbank Centre, and published in a book for friends, family and others to read, my children will very tangibly experience being successful writers with an audience and a purpose to inspire them to write. We can’t wait!” Imagine is the annual multi-arts festival produced and hosted by Southbank Centre. It is dedicated to families experiencing and enjoying all kinds of art and culture together, of the highest quality and sourced and commissioned from all over the world.

  • Conservation Management Plan for the National Theatre Haworth Tompkins
    Conservation Management Plan For The National Theatre Final Draft December 2008 Haworth Tompkins Conservation Management Plan for the National Theatre Final Draft - December 2008 Haworth Tompkins Ltd 19-20 Great Sutton Street London EC1V 0DR Front Cover: Haworth Tompkins Ltd 2008 Theatre Square entrance, winter - HTL 2008 Foreword When, in December 2007, Time Out magazine celebrated the National Theatre as one of the seven wonders of London, a significant moment in the rising popularity of the building had occurred. Over the decades since its opening in 1976, Denys Lasdun’s building, listed Grade II* in 1994. has come to be seen as a London landmark, and a favourite of theatre-goers. The building has served the NT company well. The innovations of its founders and architect – the ampleness of the foyers, the idea that theatre doesn’t start or finish with the rise and fall of the curtain – have been triumphantly borne out. With its Southbank neighbours to the west of Waterloo Bridge, the NT was an early inhabitant of an area that, thirty years later, has become one of the world’s major cultural quarters. The river walk from the Eye to the Design Museum now teems with life - and, as they pass the National, we do our best to encourage them in. The Travelex £10 seasons and now Sunday opening bear out the theatre’s 1976 slogan, “The New National Theatre is Yours”. Greatly helped by the Arts Council, the NT has looked after the building, with a major refurbishment in the nineties, and a yearly spend of some £2million on fabric, infrastructure and equipment.
