Time Capsule
Our Time Capsule - a report by the Pupil Council
The Site Manager, Mr John McCready, from J B Bennett suggested that when our new extension was being
built, we should place our own time capsule in the foundations of the building. J B Bennett had
previously found a time capsule at another building site which was over 300 years old!
The time capsule is a small plastic container which we filled with a selection of items:-
a school handbook, signed by the pupil council
a school newsletter from January 2005
a school tie
our school badge
a selection of money - 50 pence, £1 coin and £2 coin
our award system for good/bad behaviour - bronze, silver and gold badges
a red nose
an information booklet about J B Bennett
a first class stamp
a mobile 'phone
Charity bands - white (poverty), yellow (live strong), pink (breast cancer)
digital photographs of our school
our school mission statement

J B Bennett made a space in one of the new classroom pillars. |
Our pupil councillors lined up - 7B to 3A and Mrs MacInnes passed the time capsule down the line. Each councillor wished the time capsule a 'safe journey'. |  |
|
At the end of the line, Fraser, P4B (the lucky winner of our straw poll) had the honour of putting the time capsule in place. |
Mrs MacInnes and Mr McCready checked that the capsule was secure:-

Mr McCready sealed the time capsule in place.

Our gift to the future!

Thank you to Mrs Brown, Learning Assistant, for taking these great digital photographs.
