Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth IIPrint Page Print this 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. 

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.
