A school in Ealing has planted an impressive 120 trees to celebrate their 120th anniversary.

St Benedict's School in West Ealing planted the wild cherry trees, provided by the Woodland Trust, on the school site and also at Holy Family Catholic Primary in Acton.

St Benedict's Chair of governors, Joe Berger planted the first tree at the School's Perivale sports grounds at a short ceremony attended by the Headmaster, Andrew Johnson, the Junior School Headmaster, Rob Simmons and students from St Benedict's Eco Society.

All the remaining trees were then planted by the Combined Cadet Corps at Perivale and on the St Benedict's site.

St Benedict's parents also donated almost £700 to the 'Trillion Trees' project, which is helping to restore and protect the world's forests.

Headmaster, Andrew Johns said: "I am delighted that we are celebrating this landmark in our history with an environmental project.

"We hope that these trees will flourish, along with St Benedict's, over the next 120 years as we continue to educate young people for a sustainable future."
