EDUCATION
Sustainable Construction
The Woodland Enterprise Centre is available as a site for
training in principles of sustainable construction, and the building and
renewable energy demonstration are suitable for many curriculum topic projects.
Woodland skills
A range of forestry and woodland management skill training courses are
carried out by Plumpton College, either at Flimwell, or near Battle.
There are also opportunities to use the Flimwell site
for skills training in other environmental or timber-related courses.
Design
Projects demonstrating use of local timber in furniture
and 3D design can be organised. Materials are available for students
to experiment with.
