For our Ten Year Anniversary celebration last year, we asked our students to share photos from their schools as part of – “My School Photo Exhibition” Students participated in the challenge to share images and captions of different activities in the school so that other stakeholders could learn more about their school. In this edition, we have six schools featured.
Photos were taken on a FujiFilm Quicksnap camera and the negatives developed for this showcase.
