Based on the well-known fantasy novels, The Spiderwick Chronicles follows the Grace family as they move into the run-down Spiderwick Estate. Once settled in their new home, peculiar things start to happen as twin brothers Jared and Simon, their mother and their sister Mallory, find themselves pulled into an alternate world full of fairies and other fantastic creatures. Following the film, a Children’s British Board of Film Classification examiner will guide students through the process of classifying a film, offering a unique insight into the work of the board.

It’s hard being a rat with aspirations to be a star chef, but Remy is convinced he can break the stereotype and make it in the world of haute cuisine. When his passion for cooking turns the haughty world of French cuisine upside down, Remy questions whether he should pursue his dream or go back to the sewer. With its abundant verbal and visual wit, RATATOUILLE contains all the ingredients of a crowd pleaser. Following the film, representatives from the John Innes Centre and Institute of Food Research will lead a ‘taste and flavour’ workshop.

Sophie, a teenage girl working in a hat shop, finds her life thrown into turmoil when she is literally swept off her feet by a handsome-but-mysterious wizard named Howl, and is subsequently turned into a 90-year-old woman by the vain and conniving Wicked Witch of the Waste. Embarking on an incredible odyssey to lift the curse, she finds refuge in Howl's magical moving castle where she meets Calcifer a hot-headed fire demon. An outstanding animation from Studio Ghibli based on the novel by Diana Wynne Jones. The film will be introduced by a member of Cinema City’s Education Department.

The year is 2700. WALL-E (an acronym for Waste Allocation Load Lifter - Earth-Class), a robot, spends every day doing what he was made for on a planet now devoid of humans and covered in rubbish. But soon he will discover what he was truly meant for. Witty, profound and beautifully realised, WALL•E is the latest animated feature from Pixar (TOY STORY, RATATOUILLE) and is amongst their very finest.
