Discover the mystery
The aim of this final session is to discover the contents of the Mystery Box and then propose to build a new time capsule to be opened in a year's time.
Last secret number
The last secret number matches the last digit of the British Prime Minister's house number. Do you know which number it is? Once opened, the teacher shows the objects in the box, asking students about them, what meanings they might have and why they think they are in the box.
Time machine
In this activity we individually tell the group which keepsake we have brought and why. Once we have finished the presentation, each of us puts their object in the empty box. We will bury the box with our keepsakes in the school garden, so that, after a year, we can dig it up and compare past and present objects and ideas.
