Arborist Gary McFarlane trimmed a 30m-high Douglas fir tree at Columba College yesterday, in preparation for its removal.

It is one of several trees removed from grounds recently to make way for a multimillion-dollar upgrade of the school.

The improvements include turning the junior campus into a state-of-the-art facility, redeveloping the Bishopscourt building, and constructing new boarding facilities.
