Home / What's New / Teddy Bear’s Picnic

“If you go down to the Grove today you’re sure of a big surprise, If you go down to the Grove today you’d better go in disguise! For every bear that ever there was will gather there for certain because today’s the day the Teddy Bears have their picnic!”

This week we held a Teddy Bear’s Picnic at each of our campuses. The children made a old coin donation before enjoying a delicious picnic with their friends, Educators and of course, their teddy bears.

This year the Bandaged Bear Appeal celebrates 30 years!! Since 1989, the Appeal has fostered generations of giving from the community to support lifetimes of care for millions of patients and their families at Westmead Children’s Hospital.  We are proud to once again support this very important cause by hosting the Teddy Bear’s Picnic. No child belongs in hospital!
