Create and win your own Shaun the Sheep sculpture

Wallace and Gromit’s Children’s Charity and Aardman Animations are asking early years settings and schools across the country to take part in Shaun’s Cracking Ideas Design Challenge.

Shaun in the City involves 120 giant sculptures of the much-loved Wallace & Gromit character Shaun being exhibited across Bristol and London in two arts trails during summer 2015.

The major public art project based on Shaun the Sheep will raise money for sick children in hospitals across the UK.

The organisers are encouraging schools and nurseries to take part in a national design challenge to design their own Shaun the Sheep sculpture and invent an innovative way to transport him back to the farm after he gets lost in the city.

The winning design will be decided by public vote, and will be turned into a 5ft sculpture to form part of what organisers believe will be a major tourist attraction and community event. The figure will then be awarded to the winning school.
