Youngsters are seen preparing for the popular Sheffield Children’s Festival, rehearsing for the Young World Concert at Sheffield Arena, and visiting the short-lived Sheffield City Airport.
Children are also shown at schools and parks around Sheffield, celebrating Christmas and Chinese New Year, raising money for good causes, and marking a special anniversary for the city.
A Sheffield United star and a boxing great feature alongside the youngsters in this trip down memory lane.
