桜小学校のオオアカガシ, Remarkable tree at Sakura Elementary School in Setagaya, Japan.
The Japanese red oak grows on the grounds of Sakura Elementary School, where it provides shade and has become a central feature of the school environment. Its wide canopy covers a substantial area of the schoolyard.
This oak tree was planted with the establishment of Sakura Elementary School and has watched over countless students throughout the decades. It stands as a living record of the school's long history.
The tree serves as a gathering place during school events and educational programs, helping students feel connected to nature while in an urban area.
Visitors can reach this location by public transportation to Setagaya ward, but entry to the school grounds is restricted during school hours for safety reasons. Plan your visit outside regular school times or on weekends.
The tree supports various species of birds and insects that thrive within the school grounds, creating a small ecosystem in this urban area. This demonstrates how a single mature oak can sustain local wildlife.
