Collingwood is delighted to be supporting St Oswald’s Hospice by taking part in the Tales on the Tyne project, which, this year, features Peter Rabbit.

The exciting news is that Collingwood’s Peter Rabbit is to be exhibited in Newcastle Cathedral from July 15th.

St Oswald’s Hospice help improve living for everyone living in the North East with an incurable condition.

You can see our finished Peter Rabbit here on this page, and you can click him to spin him around for a better look. Double-click to zoom in for a more detailed view.

Schools and youth groups are awarded Peter Rabbit sculptures, which they can then use their imaginations to decorate. The finished sculptures are collected and put on display as part of a sculpture trail which is held across Newcastle and North Tyneside from 15th July until the 14th September.

This is free to all and has 40 sculptures to celebrate the hospice’s 40th anniversary.

Every Collingwood student contributed design ideas. The final design highlights the plight of bees in our country and their importance in our environment.
