An exciting new project we are working in close partnership with to deliver primary school education and school grounds projects is Old Chalk New Downs. This landscape scale scheme is looking at habitat restoration of what has been called the UK's rainforest, or species rich chalk downland. The UK has approximately 50% of the world's resource of this rare, precious and species rich habitat. The project will not only make habitat connections through practical restoration projects, but link with the wider community seeking to educate, inform and entertain. Look out for their dedicated programme of events on their website, including healthy living walks, training days and family fun days.

Led by our education officer, we provide Key Stage 1 & 2 curriculum linked activities. We offer the choice of indoor and outdoor school visits and can lead field trips to suitable nearby locations.
Staff can also provide Forest School sessions.

The Kent Orchards for Everyone project recognises the huge cultural and wildlife losses which will occur if traditional orchards are allowed to disappear. Through extensive consultation with communities living in close proximity to traditional orchards thirteen community orchards have been prioritised for support and for communities to actively participate in conserving and celebrating the heritage of our orchards. This project will provide them with the skills to contribute to the long term care and provide a legacy for some of the last remaining traditional orchards ensuring they are conserved and sustained for future generations.
