Incredible Education

18/06/2026

🌱It's 12 years since we were incorporated as a Community Interest Company, there have been so many changes in those years since Ian and Judith started Incredible Education. From smaller beginnings with horticulture at Tindall Street and Forest school at Worsley woods and Blackleach to the establishment of Cleavley Community Forest Garden , their legacy continues with a new generation of directors and staff. Thousands of school pupils, students, toddlers , and local community members have benefited from our work. Thank you to the hundreds of volunteers and supporters over the years without whom we wouldn't be here. Here's to another 12 years! 🌱

🎸If you're coming along to the Summer Solstice Celebration on Friday and you own a portable instrument such as a bodhran, guitar, ukulele etc, please bring it along so that we can get some impromptu beats and songs going around the fire circle! 🪘

It was fantastic to see so many families at Family Forest School today ! We had an amazing time, building a big nest for our egg, identifying trees by their leaves, making a forest medal, exploring, finished off by trying some elderflower pancakes cooked on the fire 🔥 thanks to our funders Greater Manchester Community Renewables who made it possible to offer these sessions free to access ☺️
