Discover your local forest
These exciting activities will help you to explore your local forest and find out how our forests are managed sustainably for people, wildlife and timber.
These activity sheets are aimed at children aged between 4 and 11 years old and the activities can be done in any Forestry England woodland in England. Everyone is welcome to download and complete these activities, but for those participating in Children's University, if you complete the whole activity sheet, you will qualify for two hours of learning in your passport.
Children's University
Write answers down as you go, or complete the sheet later on.
We understand that not all children are able to complete written work; where necessary, the child may give verbal answers which are noted by a parent or teacher and sent with an accompanying comment. If you wish to discuss submitting a different piece of evidence, please get in touch.
When you have finished, scan pages 1 and 5, or take a photo of them, and email them to learning.england@forestryengland.uk with your name and age, and the name of the forest you visited.
