Following on from our Platinum Jubilee celebrations at the end of last half term, this week the School Council alongside Mrs Howlett, Headteacher; Mrs Wright, Chair of Governors and Mrs Westerby, Vice-Chair of Governors and Local Councillor, planted a tree to commemorate HM The Queen’s 70 years on the throne.
The tree chosen is a variety of cherry, aptly named Regina, meaning ‘reigning Queen’. Newtown C of E Primary School will now register this tree as part of the Queens Green Canopy legacy spearheaded by the Woodland Trust.
