The temporary plaque unveiled by Zali Steggall in November 2022. The official plaque will be stainless steel set into sandstone, to be installed before the end of the year.
The project received funding of $10,000 from the Queen`s Platinum Jubilee Tree Planting Program which will run from 2021-2024. The project will plant fruit bearing and native habitat trees, install commemorative plaques and hold an event in honour of The Queen’s Jubilee. This will enhance shade, create sustainable food sources and support native wildlife.

Her reign of 70 years and 214 days was the longest of any British monarch and the longest verified reign of any female monarch in history.
