The aim of this project is to create a “cultural survival guide” for children who are new to the city, in order to make their adjustment to Nottingham easier.
By organising different workshops in three primary schools, we explored the means of collecting this precious data. How to see a city through the eyes of a child? Design and art techniques helped to talk about this complex issue: group and individual mapping and collaging, and experimental curating were leading our discussions. This report is an overview of three different methodologies that helped us to see how children feel and what they do in Nottingham.
Our Process
West Bridgford Infant School Workshop
Day 1 - Images
Teachers from year 2 at West Bridgford Infant School (especially Ms Whitrow) were very keen to work on this particular workshop with us. The workshop was delivered in two days, Monday the 4th and Thursday the 7th of July 2016. Year 2 pupils (84 of them!) were asked to bring pictures about 5 main themes (which included who we care for, celebrations, games, stories, and free time. On the first day we did some mind mapping to bring together all of these ideas.
Day 2 - Posters
On the second day, the children brought together all of their ideas to create a series of posters to show all of the things they find important about the 5 different themes (who we care for, celebrations, games, stories and free time). We used these suggestions to choose which places in Nottingham we should include on this guide, to make sure the things we included are of interest.
Carrington Primary Summer Project
Pupils from Carrington Primary and Nursery school were invited to reflect on their individual identities. This time, the task was to create individual posters about themselves based around 5 main themes which mark their identity: celebrations, relationships, special places, family and ‘me’. In the West Bridgford School the focus was on the discussion, and collages were the product of group work. This time, we were curious to find out how children perceive themselves individually. Collages were created by children in different age groups (from 4 to 11).
Mapping Sneinton Identity
At this workshop, children were invited to bring something that’s important to them from around Sneinton or at school. They were asked to fill out work sheets, with a drawing of their object in the centre, a description and name of the object, as well as the questions “why is this object important to you?” and “why is this object important to your school?” The aim was to promote reflection and ownership: why have you chosen that object / how is it important for you?
