Pupils at Churchfields Junior School in South Woodford planted apple, plum and pear trees in March as part of Redbridge Council’s School’s Tree Planting initiative.

“More than 390 children from the school grabbed spades and got stuck in to plant 10 trees in the school grounds. During the event, the eco-minded pupils also learnt about the important environmental and health benefits trees bring,” said a spokesperson.

The initiative will see pupils help to plant 71 new trees on school sites across the borough this year.
