Here at CPRE Sussex we love trees. They protect our environment, provide a home for nature and make us happier and healthier.

That is why we have created a series of tree-themed resources for children and young people.

We have created two factsheets – one aimed at primary school children and one at secondary school children.

We have also created activity sheets for children in Key Stage 1 (5-7 years old) and Key Stage 2 (7-11 years old).

The activities have been designed to tie in with key areas of the Key Stage 1 and 2 curriculum.

All of the resources are free to download and share. They can be used by teachers, community groups, parents and, of course, children themselves.

Feeling inspired?

If you want to help trees in your area you can:

  • Write to your local councillor asking them to support more trees in your area
  • Start a school club
  • Get involved in local tree planting events
