Archive Engagement Officer, Mrs Jenna Robinson, introduced several groups of curious and engaged Year 8 & 9 boys to the concept of 'archives', by involving them in interactive workshops with a variety of items from Campbell's own archive. The boys became amateur archivists for the morning and grew in understanding and confidence as they identified artefacts and learned more about how these items are preserved, and why it's important to maintain the College's archive as a living insight into our shared history.
