Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth IIPrint Page

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

Cremorne Bowls and Community Club Inc., and Pipe Clay Coastcare Group received funding of $20,000 from the Queen`s Platinum Jubilee Tree Planting Program which will run from 2021-2024. The project will plant trees at the Cremorne-Lauderdale walking track, install a commemorative plaque and hold an event in honour of The Queen’s Jubilee. This will enhance habitat for native fauna and beautify the local environment.

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. 

It was great to visit with the volunteers at Pipe Clay Coastcare in Cremorne last weekend to join their celebrations for The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. The volunteers, with support from the Cremorne Bowls and Community Club were successful in receiving a $20,000 grant through the Planting Trees for the Queen’s Jubilee Commemorative Grants program.

Note: The track is part of the Clarence Coastal Trail and traverses the coast between Cremorne Beach and Mays Beach. The track is 4.5km in length between Cremorne Beach Park and southern end of Mays Beach. Start from the Cremorne Beach Park carpark and walk north along the beach to the start of the track. There are additional access points at the end of Forest Hill Road and Bayside Drive.
