Schools bury time capsules because they want a future assembly to remember that a particular year felt permanent. The old Park Ridge News URL /25yo-time-capsule-at-park-ridge-school/ marked one of those civic gestures. This page keeps the path. It does not republish a student roll, a teacher quote we cannot verify, or a photograph of children.
Logan City Council’s Park Ridge history already supplies the long school file: a provisional school completed in April 1895, white-ant damage by 1907, a moved Browns Plains building on land transferred in March 1913, a high school in 1991, Saint Philomena’s in 1999, Parklands Christian College in 2001. A capsule makes sense on that timeline. Twenty-five years is a generation of families through the same gate.
How this newsroom now covers school and community events:
- We write from notices a school has already published.
- We do not name minors for colour.
- We will link a public anniversary page. We will not scrape an old gallery.
If a school is opening a capsule on a dated public event listing, send the listing to submit a tip. Related: Park Ridge, 2020 student-perspective URL, FAQ.
