EDUCATIONAL TOOLKIT

Planting trees and growing knowledge

Trees have the power to restore landscapes and strengthen communities. We believe that power grows even stronger with education. Alongside our tree planting projects, we teach children about the importance of trees, healthy soils and landscapes.

How does it work?

We offer an educational toolkit with teaching materials designed for primary schools and organisations that work with children aged 8 to 12. It lets teachers build their own lessons, using fun interactive material.

The toolkit

Trees play a vital role in healthy, thriving landscapes. We believe children should learn about the nature around them, understand the challenges it faces - like deforestation - and discover what they can do to help restore it. 

• Why are trees important?
• What happens when too many trees are cut down?
• What is desertification?
• What is the function of trees in cities? 
• How can planting trees help restore nature?
