Call for Schools
Young people can join in the fun by getting involved in The Big Hoot’s Little Hoot!
Sign up to our Learner Programme and you’ll get to create your very own owlet sculpture to turn into your own unique piece of art. We’ll also give you lots of resources for lessons and awareness about the importance of children’s hospices. The Little Hoots will be displayed at the same time as the main trail – in indoor community locations.

Schools and youth groups already signed up have been visiting the Woodland Walk at Chestnut Tree House, learning about children’s hospice care and why their school’s participation and fundraising for The Big Hoot’s Little Hoot is so important. They also got to meet lots of owls (thank you, Owls About Town!) Scroll through the gallery to see the fun we’ve been getting up to!
Join our growing Little Hoot squad
