Term 2 - Local Learning Cinema Project

Year 6 have been working with Local Learning on a project to celebrate Bristol's film-making heritage.

We started off by visiting Castle Park at the start of the term. The Local Learning team took us on a tour to see where several cinemas used to stand - this was really interesting to us, because in Year 5 we learnt about the Bristol Blitz, and how the Castle Park area of the city has changed over time.

We then took part in a memory-sharing event, where we interviewed visitors to our school about their memories of the cinema. It was really interesting to learn about the experiences of people at the cinema!

Then, we had what some children described as, "The best two days of school ever!" Architecture students from UWE, along with local artist Tom McDonagh, worked with us to make and decorate lanterns showcasing some of our own favourite cinema memories! We can't wait for our lantern parade in December, when we will be able to share them with our families.
