Climbing Wall Revamp

Our climbing wall mural has been looking rather tired for a while, so we asked Pete Barber, Graffitti Artist  to visit again to work with the children to design and paint a new mural. This activity was funded through our Awards For All Lottery grant. We’re sure you’ll agree it looks great.

Girl with the Roses

You may have seen some of Peter Barber’s work in Chesterfield which includes the “Girl with the Roses” mural on the the bridge supports near the cafe in Queen’s Park. It is based on the story of a little girl who sneakily picked one of her father’s roses and was made to pose for a statue as punishment. The statue can be seen in the glass conservatory which is also in Queen’s Park.
