Our native species tree grove in the Highlands is proving to be a success. We now have 16 trees planted there. This number will grow each year as our textile recycling provides us with funds to add more trees to our grove. Hopefully, one day we will have planted enough trees to offset our school’s carbon footprint, as well as helping to make a barren area of the Highlands beautiful again and provide woodland habitat for many animals, insects and birds.

Did you know that you can purchase a tree and it will be added to our grove? They cost just £6 each, (far cheaper than in the garden centre). We hope that the whole community of St. Albert’s Primary will add trees to our grove, so that it becomes a forest over time. You can add a tree to our grove on the Trees for Life website at:
