GIRLS at Headington Preparatory School in Oxford gathered yesterday to watch a time capsule being placed in the foundations of a new building.
The contents of the capsule, chosen by the girls, included a school timetable, a page from a newspaper, a lunch menu, artwork by pupils and a sheet of music from the Year Six play.
Pupil Emily Morgan said: “It was a very nice thing to do, because maybe in a few years’ time somebody might discover it.”
The classrooms will be ready for the start of the new school year in September.
