Time Capsules For Local School Children:
Pupils of East Preston Junior School were invited to bury a time capsule at Oceanique.
Class photographs, details about the children’s lives and the life of the school
were included in the time capsules along with stamps, money, modern sweets, images
of modern hairstyles and fashions, facts on endangered species, climate changes,
films and cartoons, The Queen, hobbies and, of course, the World Cup! After a week
of hard work, which involved plenty of communication and sharing of ideas, the children
finally visited Oceanique, donning hard hats and high visibility jackets, to watch
their capsules being buried within the grounds of the development. The site visit
enabled them to gain a valuable insight into the house building process whilst quizzes
and puzzles provided by MJH Executive Homes helped raise awareness of the dangers
of playing on building sites.
