10: The MillenniumBy Stella Cardus
The year 2000 was commemorated with the publication of a child’s-eye view of the Millennium, based on diaries and project work undertaken in conjunction with local schools. 'The Children's Millennium Diary Anthology' (2001) is presented much like a scrapbook and offers an insight into the thoughts, crazes, hobbies, habits and humour of the contemporary young mind Other publications focusing on childhood recollections were published in 2002. 'Are you sitting comfortably?' and 'Remember the First Time?' included stories about important childhood milestones - birthdays, Christmas, Easter and that perennial favourite, the seemingly endless summer holidays! In 2003, 'School Reports' continued the theme by encapsulating the reminiscences and anecdotes of past pupils of St. Luke’s School in the Queens Park area of Brighton in the years between 1908 - 1983.
