One girl on the activity was interviewed and here is what she had to say:
It's an interesting topic. We are finding out about the history of Parklands High School. Also, we are finding out what the school was like when it was a grammar school. It is amazing to see the changes that have taken place over the years.
The History group have been to the local cemetery and to Chorley town centre. They have been to the cemetery to try to identify the graves of former Parklands pupils.
Pupils also set up a stall in the town centre showing pictures of former Parklands pupils. As a result of talking to the local community, people have come forward with their own stories and memories connected with the school. One woman has even donated her own collection of photographs and memorabilia that would have otherwise gone undiscovered if the group hadn't shared their findings with the public.
The team have also been in contact with celebrities who previously attended Parklands via Twitter. We have had Tweets from Rock FM's Hywel and Jamie and Holly Bleasdale.
