A key feature of Catherine Park Estate is leafy tree-lined streets and a collection of carefully preserved green areas. While contributing to the natural beauty, there’s another reason why we plant trees in Catherine Park Estate and why we developed a carefully considered tree plan for this community and its residents.

Trees in residential and urban areas help to offset what’s known as the ‘heat sink effect’, also referred to as the ‘heat island effect’. These terms describe instances where localised warming occurs due to dark-coloured and paved surfaces, buildings and the emission of heat from human activities.

When you exchange gifts and messages this Valentine’s Day, you’ll be participating in an event that has its origins in Ancient Rome. And while a lot of us think it’s just an excuse to inflate the prices of red roses, restaurant meals and chocolate, there’s actually a lot more to Valentine’s Day.
