Green schools  

School children enjoying planting activity, Clifton Gre 

Would you like to make your school a greener, healthier, and more attractive place to learn in?

Trees and greenery are an excellent way to improve the learning environment adding seasonal colour and interest and brining nature to your doorstep. Red Rose Forest has been working with school across Greater Manchester for over 20 years to do just this.

There are many benefits that trees and greenery can bring to your school including:

  • providing a setting for environmental education
  • encouraging children to engage with the natural environment
  • developing a more attractive school environment
  • promoting a sense of well-being and school pride
  • reducing local temperatures on hot days
  • reducing energy consumption and noise pollution
  • improving local air quality

Red Rose Forest has worked with a number of schools across Greater Manchester on projects including tree planting, hedge planting, bulb and wildflower planting.

How we can help

Red Rose Forest is able to offer advice to schools who want to add greenery to their school. Please contact the Green Streets team on 0161 872 1660.
