Welcome to our Tiny Forest

Wilmslow High School's Tiny Forest was planted in February 2023. The Tiny Forest was funded by the pop band The 1975 and planted by the local community and members of the Wilmslow Transition Tree Group. The Tiny Forest project will help people learn about and reconnect with nature and involves the local community in helping plant and look after the forest. Wilmslow High School will be encouraged to use the Tiny Forest as an outdoor classroom. The forest was planted in an L-shape.
