Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth IIPrint Page

The tree commemorates the Platinum Jubilee of the reign of Queen Elizabeth II and acknowledges her 70 years of service as Australia`s Head of State. 

The project received funding of $3,500 from the Queen`s Platinum Jubilee Tree Planting Program which will run from 2021-2024. The project will plant a Golden Wattle tree, install a commemorative plaque and hold an event in honour of The Queen’s Jubilee. This will provide a habitat for native fauna and enhance shade for students.

Elizabeth II (21 April 1926 – 8 September 2022) was Queen of the United Kingdom and other Commonwealth realms from 6 February 1952 until her death in 2022. She was queen regnant of 32 sovereign states during her lifetime, and was head of state of 15 realms at the time of her death. 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. 

Recently Endeavour came together in celebration of Plant a Tree for the Jubilee, an environmental initiative endorsed by the Commonwealth and Australian Government, in honour of the late Queen Elizabeth II and her phenomenal 70 years of service. To celebrate her dedication to service, the College planted a Golden Wattle, the floral emblem of Australia, adding to the legacy she leaves behind, as well as further enriching our local environment and community well into the future.
