Welcome to our Tiny Forest
The Fenstanton and Hilton Primary School Tiny Forest was planted on the 28th of November, 2022 by the students and staff of the school. The school chose an l-shaped forest, with a classroom area looking out at the their school grounds. This Tiny Forest was funded by the Forestry Commission under the Local Authority Treescape Fund, in collaboration with Cambridge County Council who provided the land.
