WILLOWBANK PUPILS MAKE VALUABLE CONTRIBUTION TO TREE PROJECT

Pupils from Willowbank School, Coatbridge this week joined forces with The Woodland Trust, the UK’s leading woodland conservation charity, to plant new trees at a designated area with Drumpellier Country Park, Coatbridge.

Pupils planted native trees which will grow well into the next century to be enjoyed by future generations.

The project is part of the Woodland Trust’s “More Trees, More Good” campaign – the largest tree planting mission the UK has ever seen.

For Melissa, Shaun, Eve and Lee, this was the first time they had planted a tree. The pupils learned about the environmental benefits and how their trees will help the forests of tomorrow.

Paul Bunton of the Woodland Trust said “With the help of more young people The More Trees, More Good campaign will help make a lasting impact on the UK landscape.”
