This project, initiated as part of the "elementary school/municipality planting" program, saw the active participation of the young students. They planted some of the oak trees that had been nurtured for a year.
In November 2025, the classes had gathered to collect acorns from three species of oak: cork oak, white oak (also called pubescent oak), and holm oak. Thanks to the rainfall in early 2026, germination was successful, followed by potting and regular watering to withstand the summer heat of 2026.
Today, 130 saplings awaited planting. About thirty have already taken root at the "children's forest" site (land opposite the gymnasium), where the Declaration of the Rights of Trees, written by the Children's Municipal Council, is erected. The other young oaks will soon be planted on other sites with other classes from the elementary school.
This concrete project, both educational and pedagogical, symbolizes the commitment of the residents of Sorède and the municipality to the environment.
