| February 2004 marked the end of our Centenary year and to celebrate we decided to make our own school crucifix. With the help of a local artist, the children spent two months working on the 5ft crucifix. They produced mosaics, stencils, sketches and paintings to depict the old and new school buildings, the four seasons, shamrocks and Elland town centre. The reverse shows images of all the children and staff, drawn by the children. What the children have created is truly unique and symbolic - the four seasons show how the school continues to blossom year after year and the faces of the children represent the current generation. The crucifix is now mounted in the school hall and hopefully will be enjoyed by others for another 100 years to come.
