Working in collaboration with the Heart of England Forest, the children will be transported by bus to plant trees locally, where they will be encouraged to learn:
-
What animals use and depend on trees
-
About the parts of a tree and what they need to grow
-
How trees produce oxygen and store carbon
-
Identify tree varieties using classification charts
-
Investigate the age of trees and learn about their lifecycle
-
The different uses of forests
-
The impacts of human activities, deforestation, afforestation, reforestation and open burning
-
To create a connection with nature and a desire to protect and plant trees
All of the above support the school in meeting their national curriculum objectives
