Yesterday we went on a bear hunt in Sheffield city centre. Over the summer “The Bears of Sheffield” have taken over the city to help raise money for Sheffield Children’s Hospital. There are 100 big bears and 60 little bears to find which have been decorated by different artists. You can see a map of the bears and learn more about them on the bears of Sheffield website here.
We had a sunny afternoon at Crookes Valley Park learning more about Sheffield. We enjoyed seeing the lake and making new friends!
We’ve had many new people signing up for classes recently who have only just arrived in Sheffield. So today we invited them to come on a walk and talk. We visited Mount Pleasant Park, U-Mix Centre and went to Heeley City Farm to say hello to the animals! If you’d like to join our classes please enrol here.
Today we had a nice sunny day in Weston Park. It’s great to see friendships forming and everyone is learning so much more about Sheffield.

Today we had a socially distanced walking quiz at Weston Park. We all split into small groups and enjoyed looking round the park, answering the questions and feeding the ducks and pigeons!
We had our first socially distanced outing this week with a customised walking quiz. Small groups of 2-4 people explored the Sheffield Botanical Gardens together maintaining social distancing. It was lovely to see both staff and students enjoying themselves. We hope to be able to organise similar activities outdoors during August and September.
