To celebrate Summerhill School’s 100th Birthday our community will be doing an array of exciting and unique projects. We are also inviting you, our friends, to celebrate the inspirations given to you by A.S.Neill by creating your own!

Our values foster an environment where so much is possible, and we want these celebratory projects to depict the diversity and freedom present in our community. The possibilities are limitless, your project could be anything.
