Fifty Years On

25 Jun 2019

What will the world be like in fifty years time? Impossible to tell but  a group of young people from three local schools have left a message for future generations telling them what life is like now and how they think it may change in the decades to come.

On Tuesday 25th June 2019 three time capsules were buried in the garden of Shrewsbury House. Children from St Ursula's Convent School, Christ Church C of E Primary School and Plumstead Manor school have spent the last year collecting and compiling drawings, writing and objects to go into three Titanium cylinders.

Shrewsbury House celebrated fifty years as a community centre in 2018 and so the time capsules are set to be opened in 2068 - our 100th anniversary. The children are invited to come back in fifty years time to open them and maybe show their own children what life was like in 2018.
