Woodland Trust – Green Tree Schools Award
Applemore has been successful in reaching the Bronze level of the Green Tree award. It was through the culmination of various projects run at the school; planting new trees, allowing students to visit woodlands and our reduction in CO2 through our ‘LOL’ (Lights off Lessons) mornings.
The scheme is run via the Woodland Trust and everyone here at Applemore appreciates what a unique setting we have with the New Forest directly opposite the school. We encourage students to think meaningfully about the importance woodlands/trees play in our lives and how to reduce the impact of climate change.
We are pleased to say we are now working towards for the Silver Award!
