On the 1st July, toddlers, parents and staff from Owler Brook came together for a Barnardo’s ‘Big Toddle.’
The Barnardo’s Big Toddle is a short sponsored walk for toddlers to raise money for the UK's most vulnerable under 5s.
This particular walk was from Owler Brook Nursery to Firth Park, where they then enjoyed many activities in the sun, before going back to Owler Brook. Not only did the Toddle aim to raise money for charity, it also encouraged families to walk to school and other local places.
The sunny afternoon provided the perfect atmosphere for a few fun filled hours. Once the group had arrived at the park, there was lots for the little ones to do, including hula-hooping, spacehopping, hurdling, playing with a parachute and even singing nursery rhymes with Jofi the Bear.
In total the school raised £92.02 on their Barnardo’s Big Toddle sponsored walk.
