Custodial history:
When Avondale High School closed in 2008, there was an event to celebrate the history of the school. Display boards were created which included many photographs. These boards have been cut down into individual photographs where possible, and items from the same display boards have been kept together. Many newspaper cuttings were also featured on display boards. The collection also includes several large photographs of year groups, and some documents.
