OUR Harlow is 75 project has taken a number of tangents over the past year.

Here we explore how schools celebrate their global villages.

YH went down to Jerounds Primary Academy to speak to their highly regarded Headteacher, Laura Citici

TO mark the town’s 75^thanniversary, Harlow Council and Your Harlow have launched a project which records the diverse history, heritage, and culture of the people and groups which are part of modern-day Harlow.

The Harlow at 75 project is made up of audio-visual recordings of conversations with both individuals and groups that explores their lives abroad before resettling in Harlow. The project reflects that we are a local but global new town and explores themes such as the definition of “Home”. 

There has never been a more important time to take every opportunity to bring communities back together, to show that a rich diverse history and heritage is something that can bring us together and be celebrated.
