[url= http://www.thecourier.co.uk/news/local/perth-kinross/row-over-plan-to-sacrifice-perth-academy-memorial-for-sports-pitch-1.104623 ]Bonkers plan[/url] to cut down a 300 year old Scots pine tree, and memorial bench, to make way for an Astroturf pitch...on a site that has many acres and other bits could be used.
It is even causing arguments in the school: PE claim the outside space is all theirs, lots of other departments that use the tree and grounds for learning disagree...

Pupils have shown their displeasure at the plan by tying a yellow ribbon around the trunk of the tree.

That's exactly the kind of protest schoolchildren come up with without any adult influence. 🙄

So?

So it would be more accurate to report that children are being used as political pawns in an argument over sports facilities and an old tree.

That's a beautiful tree and the grassy bit looks bang tidy. Memorial for kids? If it was a memorial created by man for these kids would they dare smash it down?

Get a petition going.
