Laisterdyke Leadership Academy commemorated the lives of loved ones in a heart-warming memorial tree planting ceremony as part of National Tree Week.
Pupils and staff planted trees to recognise and remember the significance and impact of three individuals who are close to their hearts and have had a profound impact on the school community.
Mr Aziz, a beloved member of staff who tragically passed away in September 2021, and Abu Farhan, a pupil who died suddenly in March 2021, are both commemorated with a tree and plaque designed and crafted by members of staff. Alongside their commemorative trees, rests a third tree that is dedicated to the memory of the late Queen Elizabeth II.
The three individuals were selected by the school’s pupil council and are the first to be commemorated in the school’s memorial garden.
