What is a School Ambassador?
A passionate young person, engaged with the Young Tree Champions programme, nominated by their teacher or youth leader to develop their advocacy for trees and nature.
School Ambassadors have access to unique online masterclasses to help them take action and creatively share their message about nature. Masterclasses, delivered monthly by our talented Senior Ambassadors, include art, poetry, story writing and public speaking and are accompanied by mini missions for ambassadors to complete between masterclasses.
Who can apply?
Nominations are open now for the next cohort of School Ambassadors.
Schools or youth clubs registered with the Young Tree Champions programme can apply through a nomination by a teacher or youth leader. The age range of pupils nominated is 7 to 14 years old. If selected, School Ambassadors will become part of a team of talented ambassadors from schools from across the UK. We do welcome nominations for pupils who have been School Ambassadors in a previous academic year.
From mid November, each ambassador can attend brilliant monthly online masterclasses delivered by our inspirational YTC Ambassadors and complete mini missions related to that month’s theme.
