=** Context **= Yearbooks are created by many schools around the world to record each academic year. Our school produces an annual Yearbook to celebrate the students, staff, events and achievements. It is produced by a team of staff with student input. There has been a development over the years from a ‘photo scrapbook’ to a more ‘magazine-like’ structure. The Yearbook is handed out at the end of year to all families in the school and also used as part of the prospectus package for potential parents and official organisations.

=** Challenge **= You need to design the Yearbook! As a class you need to consider the theme, the content that will be included and deadlines that need to be met in order for it to be printed in time. You will need layouts that can be used to assist teachers to complete their pages and you will need to write content for the pages. You need to cover key events from the year and include content from each subject area and/or class. It needs to be finished to a high standard as it is one of our marketing tools and will be seen by the entire community.

=** Area of Interaction **= Community and Service - we are creating this Yearbook to communicate to our extended community.

=** Learner Profile focus **= Our learner profile focus for this unit is ‘Communicator’. Add a sentence below to show how you think you will be a communicator in this unit. media type="custom" key="10928870"
