They were invited by Father Chris at St Mary's Church to create a time capsule which was laid in front of the altar under the church floor, which is being replaced. The time capsule was filled with artefacts, images and items of historical importance from the church.
The placement ceremony was led by the head boy and head girl of St Mary's Catholic Primary School, which is part of Bishop Chadwick Catholic Education Trust.
Headteacher Martin Clephane said: "I may not be here in 50 years' time, but our head boy and head girl will be. They will have the privilege of sharing with future generations the significance of what lies beneath the floor at St Mary's Catholic Church."
This commemorative gesture not only underscores the school's deep-rooted connection to St Mary's Church but also highlights its commitment to preserving and sharing local history for generations to come.
