A new
Scottish Junior Forester Award has been launched with the aim of giving children and young people an insight
into a career in forestry, equipping them with the knowledge and practical
skills so that they can help manage woodlands in their schools or
communities. The Scottish Junior Forester Award is aimed at 4-14 year olds in school, youth work or
community settings in Scotland. It can be delivered by teachers, educators, and
community organisations. Participants in the Award complete six sections
with practical tasks which will enhance their knowledge of trees, woodlands and
forestry. Scottish Forestry has worked in partnership with the Royal
Forestry Society and John Muir Trust to develop the award and show links with the John Muir Award.
