Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Boronia Heights Primary School Jubilee ParkPrint Page 
The trees were planted, and a commemorative plaque unveiled, in honour of Queen Elizabeth II to commemorate her Platinum Jubilee and acknowledge her 70 years of service as Australia`s Head of State.
Boronia Heights Primary School received funding of $7,341 from the Queen`s Platinum Jubilee Tree Planting Program which will run from 2021-2024. The project will plant native trees around the school oval, install a commemorative sign and hold an event in honour of The Queen’s Jubilee. This will beautify the school grounds 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.
The grand opening of our Jubilee Park, honouring Queen Elizabeth II's 70year reign, was celebrated yesterday with the school community and Alan Tudge MP cutting the ribbon. We were grateful to have a helping hand from Mr Tudge to secure a grant to acquire the trees. We look forward to watching the canopies of these beauties grow.
