Deer Shed Schools Day (Spark!) - 17th July 2025

Deer Shed Schools Day (Spark!) is back for 2025! With a new name and new set up. This year we are inviting schools across Yorkshire to attend Baldersby Park for an unforgettable school festival experience. The day will consist of theatre, den building, woodland wellbeing and crafts, mindfulness and music.

This years festival theme is A Sense of Place, with the majority of activities being outdoors linking to the natural world. All children will be able to access the activities at some point during the day, based on an organised time table.

Numbers are limited this year so we will be looking to take up to 40 children from years 3, 4, or 5 per school. This is to allow for as many schools as possible to take part. There is a fee per child of £7.50 this allows us to cover running costs of the day.

Any school that applies will automatically be included in our Festival School Ambassador network, giving you exclusive access to competitions for your raffles to Deer Shed Festival.

Please complete this form by Wednesday 30th April 2025, all schools will be emailed to let them know if they have been successful or not by Friday 2nd May.
