Auntie Duck Visits for Schools and Community Events

We are delighted to share some exciting news with you; our Auntie Duck mascot costume has arrived! Please find attached picture below

Auntie Duck is Sandwell Council’s our air quality–themed storybook that helps children learn about air pollution, its sources, and simple actions we can all take to protect our environment. We’ve been delivering engaging workshops across Sandwell in schools, libraries, faith centres, and community events and the mascot’s arrival adds a fun and interactive element that children absolutely love.

 

We are now scheduling visits where Auntie Duck can make a special appearance during story sessions or community events. If your school would like to host an Auntie Duck workshop or event, please email Auntie_Duck@sandwell.gov.uk and we’ll be happy to coordinate with you.

 

Thank you again for your continued support in helping us make learning about clean air both fun and meaningful for Sandwell’s children and families.
