Forres Preparatory School is situated in Cape Town. We are fortunate to overlook the beautiful Rondebosch Common - an open common of about 40 hectares (100 acres) in Rondebosch, Cape Town in South Africa. It contains one of the only surviving pockets of the critically endangered “Cape Flats Sand Fynbos” vegetation type, which exists nowhere else in the world.
Roots & Shoots South Africa
We are new members of the Roots and Shoots program of the Jane Goodall Institute in South Africa. Forres Preparatory School has started its own Roots and Shoots Club. This is being run by the children, in keeping with the excitement which Forres children already experience in learning to be good stewards of this earth. Forres Prep, overlooking Rondebosch Common, fosters a keen sense of the role we all play in supporting our Diversity and our Natural World.

Great day at Roots & Shoots today... Lots of water. Tyre's are clean and are ready for the new recycled door. Planted Red Basil in my Tyre. Lovely square tiles all around our pizza garden. The potatoes are getting along and are nearly starting to blossom. The hanging garden is doing well. Hope there aren't anymore roots showing. Roots are shooting and the Term 3 garden should be ready for harvesting soon, we all hope. I can't believe it Forres Roots and Shoot's page has 323 views. I would have never guessed. Can't wait till next week's Roots and Shoots!
