School children help mark special day in Malton’s history

Schoolchildren helped bury a time capsule to mark the restoration of Malton’s Wesley Centre at the event, which members of the public and local dignitaries also attended.

The time capsule project aimed to capture the essence of our present time by inviting school children to contribute letters, drawings, and objects that encapsulate their thoughts, dreams, and hopes for the future. The things have now been sealed for 100 years, to be opened by the children of Malton in the future.
