Forest For Learning

The former putney central school forest is a dedicated educational and ecological resource for the children attending the putney central school and other educational institutions. Its undeveloped charachter, history and diversity of natural plant communities and associated wildlife habitats make the forest an ideal site for an outdoor classroom, and a real-life laboratory to explore forest ecology, stewardship, and sustainability of life systems. This close-to-land learning extends to all members of the community. The environmental and ecological integrity of the forest will be protected.
