Filmhouse Group, in partnership with The Special Foundation, recently treated children from Roydek Academy and Waslat Schools to a special screening of Toy Story 5 at Filmhouse Cinemas, Circle Mall, Lagos.
The event, which took place on Tuesday, July 14, 2026, marked the first collaboration between both organisations and was themed “Every Kid Has A Toy In Their Story.” It was designed to give the children an opportunity to experience the joy of storytelling, imagination and cinema.
For many of the children, the event marked their first visit to a cinema, making it a memorable introduction to the world of film. They enjoyed an exclusive screening of Toy Story 5, distributed in Nigeria by FilmOne Entertainment, alongside refreshments and other engaging activities.
The experience created an atmosphere of excitement and connection, as the children interacted, shared laughter and immersed themselves in the magic of the big screen.
