Taylor Wimpey buries time capsule at Aylesbury development to celebrate completion

In a heartwarming gesture to leave a lasting legacy, Taylor Wimpey invited children from Kingsbrook View Primary Academy to contribute items such as drawings, origami and letters for future generations to discover. The time capsule has been sealed and marked with a commemorative plaque, preserving cherished memories from the construction era of this landmark site.

Jason Turner, Sales Manager for Taylor Wimpey North Thames, said: "We are thrilled to see the Aston Reach community thriving. It was fantastic to invite the pupils of Kingsbrook View Primary Academy and have them involved in helping us to leave lasting memories and a sense of heritage for future residents."

Richard Jackson, Assistant Headteacher at Kingsbrook View Primary Academy, said: "Our students were incredibly enthusiastic about contributing to the time capsule. It was a wonderful opportunity for them to feel connected to their community and to understand the importance of preserving history for future generations. We are proud to be part of this significant milestone for Taylor Wimpey."
