Gather your supplies

Tick these off as you shop, borrow or pull them from the house. The list is a practical starting point, not a claim that every item is required.

How to run it

  1. Agree the Tone

    Agree the Tone: Ask the graduate to approve the format and the photos that may be displayed. Give every participant a way to pass on a superlative, a roast or a public reading, and never share private workplace, school or relationship information.

  2. Build the Yearbook

    Build the Yearbook: Set up a stable craft table with glue, pens and a supervised scissors station. Use removable, child-safe materials where needed and keep the floor and exits clear of dropped stationery.

  3. Choose What to Read

    Choose What to Read: Read only entries the writer and graduate have approved. Let a sincere entry remain private if requested, and never record a reading without consent.

  4. Handover

    Handover: Give the graduate the finished book or private link at the agreed time, set a deletion date for the digital copy and arrange a safe ride or designated driver for the end of the night.
