Snail and the Whale (U, 2019, 25min)

A tiny snail goes on an amazing journey by hitching a ride on the tail of a huge humpback whale.

Tiddler (U, 2024, 22min)

A small fish with a big imagination gets lost in the deep wide ocean, until he is saved by his own storytelling.

Tickets for our Toddler Screenings are required for all adults and children, and adults can only attend if accompanying a child.

Join us from 10:30 before both screenings for a self-led, drop-in activity toddler friendly colouring in and activity sheets!
