An interview about time capsules

We interviewed our Headmaster Mr. Becker about time capsules in general and the possibilities of time capsules in our school.



We: Was something buried under our school in the foundation stone ceremony 2012?

Mr. Becker: Yes, I know that something was buried but I´m not quite sure what. But we could potentially find that out.

We: Do you already know what should get buried in the foundation stone ceremony for our new canteen?

Mr. Becker: No we actually don’t have any ideas yet.

We: Were you ever there when a time capsule was buried?

Mr. Becker: Yes, but it was on a different school.

We: Could we bury a time capsule on school grounds or would it be better in a school archive?

Mr. Becker: Both could be possible, it depends on when you want to excavate it.

We: What would you put in a time capsule?

Mr. Becker: Depends on who it is meant for - maybe historical or private pictures, basic knowledge about our town Babenhausen.

We: What is your opinion on our idea that our senior classes bury a time capsule before graduating and reopen it on a class reunion?

Mr. Becker: It’s a good idea and it could be possible to do that, if you would get it officially approved.



Now our senior classes can get a time capsule planned, if they get all the official approvements.
