Schools have great opportunities to stimulate learning and provide artistic experience for their pupils through the Belfast Children's Festival. Whether a workshop or performance, these trips encourage children's critical appraisal, observation and listening skills and promote visual literacy and imaginative thinking. They also introduce children to the many public venues and buildings that form part of their cultural entitlement in Northern Ireland.

Belfast Children's Festival 9 - 16 March 2012.

The 14^th Belfast Children’s Festival, which runs from 9 – 16 March 2012, will be themed on ‘Escape’ and we are inviting schools across Northern Ireland to get involved in some of the very best local and international children’s events available.
