Schools and WWF's 50th anniversary

 

During 2011, we are celebrating our 50th birthday and we would like to invite you and your school to help us celebrate. We are running a number of special projects which you can get involved with. Why not find out more.

Become a WWF Green Ambassador school

Does your school have an eco council or green team? Or are you thinking of setting one up? If so, why not register to become part of WWF’s Green Ambassador Scheme which is being launched in May 2011. It is a new, free, nationwide programme offering resources and support for students who are part of green teams within schools. Email Karen Gates to register.

Put on a performance of One Sun One World

We are 50 years old in 2011, and we would like to invite your school to help us celebrate! As part of our celebrations, we have commissioned a new musical for schools – One Sun One World. We are hoping for 50 schools to put on 50 performances in our 50th year. Could your school put on a performance and be listed on our roll of honour?
One Sun One World is a celebration of our astonishing world, in all its rich diversity. It focuses on a number of issues that are more relevant now than ever before; such as the sustainability of our planet and its resources, the consequences of climate change upon the habitats of endangered species, and the responsibility that we all must take to ensure a bright future for our natural world.

Plant a tree!

Pupils maintaining their school tree nursery

In our 50th anniversary year, we are teaming up with the Earth Restoration Service to help 50 schools set up their own School Tree Nursery.
 
Trees are beautiful and special. They are also vital to the health of the planet and important for people’s livelihoods and well being. By setting up your own School Tree Nursery you can help your pupils to:
  • learn more about the importance of trees
  • develop practical skills of planting and nurturing growing thingsexplore their personal connection with nature
  • feel that they are contributing to the community – and helping the planet – by helping to restore green spaces.
