We are very excited to announce that we are taking part in the Little Bears of Sheffield Sculpture Trail 2020, in support of The Sheffield Children’s Hospital Charity.  The project involves the purchase of a 1 metre tall bear sculpture, that our pupils will then create a design for, to be used to decorate the bear.  The sculpture will then be taken to be exhibited in a city-wide bear trail during summer 2020.  At the end of the trail, the bear will be returned to school for us to keep, which we plan to incorporate into the design of our brand new school landscape. Working alongside Interserve, the contractor building our new school, we will aim to incorporate the bear in its very own bear garden.

We would like you to help us fundraise for this project. This will enable us to purchase the bear and help fund a brand new cancer and leukemia ward for babies through to 19 year olds at Sheffield Children’s Hospital.  Our target for funding the project is £750.

How you can help

• Bring your fundraising ideas to Friday morning drop-ins with Mrs Jinkinson and Mr Clements
• Come along to the next Friends of Walkley meeting
• Organise your own fundraising projects out of school and donate the cash

Information regarding how we are going to involve pupils with the design for the bear will be coming out shortly.
