Yearbook
Overview
Using Seamus Heaney’s poem ‘The Schoolbag’ as a starting point, our ‘Yearbook’ workshop offers Primary 7 classes the chance to create a fun, decorative and, most importantly, personalised record of their primary school experience.
Pupils will reminiscence and reflect on their favourite school memories before creating their own unique and individual yearbooks – a lasting memento of their formative years. There will be plenty of arts and craft materials for decoration, and lots of room to include photos all the way back to Primary 1. We will capture and print lots of photos of the day, so pupils may include the trip to Seamus Heaney HomePlace amongst their special memories.
So…take a trip down memory lane and join us in marking your time at primary school!
