Djanogly Strelley and Lakeside Arts Partnership

Lakeside Arts is part of the University of Nottingham, based in the green surroundings of Highfields and University Park. It offers a year-round programme in a gallery, theatre, concert hall, museum and workshop space which is open to everyone. We work closely with staff at Lakeside Arts and The University of Nottingham to give children exciting opportunities to develop their learning as well as support their personal development and creativity.

Year 3 are working alongside a team of artists to co-design and create an art installation for the Lakeside Theatre's Christmas Production of The Littlest Yak. This art project will give all pupils the opportunity to create and display to the public a piece of art work linked to the production.

EYFS parents will link with Evolve and in class with story telling of traditional tales. 

Year 3/4 will work with historians looking at Egypt and the Egyptians. 

All children will take part in the Nottingham University Festival of Science and Creativity with visits from university lecturers and industry professionals with links to the science topics covered by the children during a whole school science week. 

There will also be opportunities for KS1 to work on the willow structure that was installed previously.  

Lakeside will also support our Futures, Diversity and Community weeks through linking with colleagues and artists for these projects.  

We value our links with Lakeside and look forward to our work over the coming year.
