Banbury’s phone box library gets a Valentine makeover

17/02/2022

Youngsters decorated the phone box library with love hearts for Valentine’s Day

Pupils at St John’s Priory in Banbury shared the love for Valentine’s Day earlier this week.

The youngsters decided to decorate Banbury’s phone box library with love hearts. The phone box is on South Bar, just round the corner from the school.

They also gave away home-made knitted hearts to those who visited the library on the day.

In school, pupils reflected on the theme of “love” in their assemblies. They wrote their thoughts on “love is” on pink post it notes, which were then shared aloud with the whole school community.

Headmistress Tracey Wilson said: “Love is one of our school values and plays an important part in our pupil’s daily lives. Love is defined as a very strong feeling of affection or a great interest and pleasure in something. It can be expressed in many different ways.

“This Valentine’s Day, we wanted to extend this feeling of love with our local community and give something back. We hope that our hearts spread a little bit of happiness and joy on this special day.”

All Oldies All Evening

Your favourite music from the 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s

Spend your evening with us for brilliant memories from four decades of music - the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s and 1990s. Each evening we dig through our massive collection of some of the biggest songs from three fantastic decades. From the 1960s we'll play the songs that were around at the time when England won the World Cup, man stepped on the moon for the first time, Dr Who was first broadcast, and everyone was groovy during the summer of love. From the 1970s it's the tunes that will bring back memories from the period when the sun never stopped shining during that long hot summer, people played with Simon, we went to see movies like Grease and Jaws for the first time, and we boogied at the best discos. From the 1980s we select songs that were around in the era of the first CD players and home computers, the iron lady, the first episode of The Simpsons and the Live Aid concerts. From the 1990s the music will evoke memories of Cool Brittania, Girl Power, Britpop and big puffa jackets. You'll be singing along with your favourite music from four brilliant decades all evening long!
