Welcome to our Tiny Forest
Lord Blyton School in South Shields planted their Tiny Forest on 20th March 2024, in partnership with the school, North East Community Forest, South Tyneside Council and Living Woods CIC. Groups of pupils and staff all participated in a thriving planting day to create a new green space within the school which can be used for outdoor learning in the future.
