- Summary
- In a recent 'Visite Royal' to the Parish of St. Brelade, a visit by the Royal Court (traditionally every 6th year), it was the unfortunate fate of a mature oak to be deemed, by the Court, to present a hazard having taken on a progressive lean for which there was no viable method of correcting. As in every other regard the tree was protected, the matter was required to put before the Royal Court for decision. Left in its current state, there was a potential for it to topple onto a main throughfare. A subsequent meeting of the St. Brelade Bloom Group therefore decided it should be replaced by three saplings of the same species - each one dedicated to a school of which the Parish also has three. On Dig Together Day, pupils of the schools have been invited to participate in their planting. In the meantime volunteers from the Bloom Group will collect the acorns of the existing tree and present to the schools for growing on with a view to planting them out in 2013 within the bounds of Les Creux Country Park, which is located within the Parish.
