Lights, camera, action! Madame Tussauds takes centre stage for Sketching Stars 2024

Are your pupils ready for a star-studded challenge?

 

We’re rolling out the red carpet for 2024's Sketching Stars competition — in partnership with Madame Tussauds London!

Over the next month, Sketching Stars will challenge each pupil to imagine their ‘Fantastic Future Self’ through a self-portrait which looks into the future — and along the way, they’ll explore the six stages of Madame Tussauds’ figure creation ✨


  • KS1: Our KS1 competition invites pupils to colour in a self-portrait — but with a future-facing twist! Whether they see themselves as the next Harry Styles, Enola Holmes or The Rock in years to come, these sheets are designed to inspire your pupils to dream big! ✨
  • KS2: Our KS2 competition challenges pupils to bring their futures to life — with a full-body self-portrait! From clothing and accessories to props, they’ll design themselves as future footballers, chefs, scientists, singers, or any star they aspire to be. Their task? To showcase what makes them fantastic through their creative designs! ✏️

What’s more, whilst the competition sheets are the stars of the show, we also have a selection of Madame Tussauds-themed bonus sheets available to help spark your pupils’ imagination — suitable for both KS1 and KS2!

 

Looking for some show-stopping prizes? We’ve got you covered!  

 

Every teacher who enters their class will receive a personal STAEDTLER stationery pack (that’s right, all of you!) But that’s not all — two lucky winners (one KS1 and one KS2) will receive…
