Twin your school with rainforest!

Join Rainforest Concern’s Forest Twinning challenge by twinning your school’s land with an equivalent area of threatened rainforest.

Forest Twinning can inspire engaging cross-curricular activities in subjects such as geography, science, maths, business studies and art and design.

There are two ways that schools can take part:

STAGE 1

· Measure up your school’s land footprint (buildings and grounds). Test maths skills by converting metres into acres and calculating your fundraising target.

STAGE 2

• Design a range of fun, forest-themed events and activities to achieve your fundraising target.
  
  
• Consider setting up a Just Giving page and generating a QR code so that parents and the wider community can donate and take part in the challenge.
  
  
• Share news of your Forest Twinning challenge with the local media.

STAGE 3

• Get in touch! Share your Forest Twinning plans with us by emailing [email protected] and tag @rainforestconcern on social media with photos of your fundraising activities.

STAGE 4

• Once your fundraising target has been achieved, please complete the Sponsor an Acre form to make your donation and receive your Sponsor an Acre certificate.
  
  
• Make an attractive outdoor or indoor sign in DT to celebrate twinning your school with rainforest.
  
  
• Consider continuing your fundraising and see how many times you can replicate your school’s land footprint in rainforest, as every acre counts.

Good luck and we look forward to hearing from you soon!
