For schools and communities

Grow a forest at your school

We help schools and community leaders plant dense native forests, and give them the guide, the grants and the curriculum to look after them.

How it works

  1. 1

    Find your school

    Look up your school on the map. You'll see how much shade its suburb has and whether there's open ground nearby, straight away.

  2. 2

    Send your school's details

    Send your school's details from the map in a minute. We'll come back with next steps and a time to talk it through.

  3. 3

    Plant, then learn

    Your students help plant a dense native forest, then use it as an outdoor classroom all year.

More than a planting day

Every school forest comes with the tools to make it part of how your school teaches.

Curriculum

A Stage 2 (Years 3–4) program written with teachers: science, literacy and maths, with three levels for every worksheet.
