Students at St Cuthbert’s Catholic High School, in St Helens, celebrated Earth Day by planting a very special tree as part of a national initiative from the Queen’s Green Canopy (QGC).
As part of their 2022’s Earth Day celebrations St Cuthbert’s Duke of Edinburgh (DoE) student volunteers planted a Norwegian Maple, to mark 70 years since the Queen came to the throne.
Emma Hepworth, geography teacher and DoE Lead at St Cuthbert’s Catholic High School, said: “We feel very privileged that St Cuthbert’s is taking part to create a legacy, in honour of the Queen’s leadership of the Nation.
“Our children are very environmentally aware and wholeheartedly support this important initiative which promotes the planting of trees across the country.”
