A theme gives your yearbook a voice. It does not need to be clever. It needs to feel like your school.

Twelve themes to consider

  • The year in chapters, one per term
  • Where we come from: the town, the parish, the school grounds
  • Our school's colours and crest, treated with respect
  • A week in the school day, hour by hour
  • The things we said all year: sayings and in-jokes
  • A map of the school and the memories on it
  • Letters to the next year
  • Before and after: first year and now
  • Our teachers in their own words
  • Match days and clubs
  • Trips and the stories that came back
  • A single word the year group chose

How to choose

Ask the year group for three words that describe the year. Look for the overlap. Then pick the theme that makes the most pages easy to fill.

Let your yearbook partner shape it

With AerEthos we design the book around your school's own identity, not a template. We take your ideas and turn them into a cover, a structure and a page for every student.
