Last week I went to a very special launch in Sheffield. Unlike the usual lunchtime networking bashes I’m used to this one was attended by lots of school children!
We’d all gathered at the newly refurbished Crucible Bar in the centre of the City, ready to watch the unveiling of a new banner that’s been hung on Park Hill as part of Sheffield Children’s Festival’s ‘Up Close Project’. The banner features photographs of more than 500 local children and have each been placed to make a huge mosaic that depict one particular school girl named Sherelle Parker. Her teachers had put her forward as she was deemed one of the most hardworking pupils in the City (quite fitting given all the hard work going on onsite too!)
The banner featuring Sherelle, her classmates and other school children is now in place at Park Hill throughout the summer. Its 25 metres long and 18 metres wide so whether you’re driving through the City or strolling through the centre, you’re bound to see it! Let us know what you think.
