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.
Mandurah Environment and Heritage Group Inc., received funding of $18,000 from the Queen`s Platinum Jubilee Tree Planting Program which will run from 2021-2024. The project will plant trees at Tindale Reserve and Riverside Gardens Reserve, install commemorative plaques and hold an event in honour of The Queen’s Jubilee. This will provide habitat for native fauna and reduce urban heat effects.
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.

On Thursday, I joined the Mandurah Environment and Heritage Group, their patron, Professor Lyn Beazley AO, City of Mandurah councillors and Winjan Dance Company on the banks of the Serpentine River to commemorate Her Late Majesty's 70th year of service. A number of banksia plants have been planted in Riverside Gardens as part of the Jubilee Tree Planting Event.
