The Profile Pages

...All About you

Profile pages will take up the majority of your yearbook, with space for each student to add photos, answer questions and write down their favourite memories. The options are endless.

We have a wide range of profile pages to choose from, which can all be adapted to fit your colour scheme and your school logo. Here are just a few of our favourite profile pages.

Mrs Smith’s Class 11S I have loved teaching Year 11s They have been a standout year group! Its rare to see such a wellbalanced and enthusiastic group of students, musical, artsy, academic and crazy at times. They have been a complete joy to teach and I wish them all the luck for the future!

Mrs Smith

Lisa Guile I will miss seeing the people everyday and making countless memories. I have made friends that will last me a life time and couldn’t have asked for better teachers to get me through these tough years, even putting up with us at our worst. Thank you manor park for everything.

Kane Owen Well I guess this is it, the years that I dreaded at the

start have flown by. The best part has to be the memories I made with my mates at lunch and every little break we could get, even when the teachers back was turned!

Lewis Hake Is it the reunion yet? The thought of not seeing everyones faces everyday is not something I enjoy thinking about, even the teachers (bet they never thought I would say that) I guess they weren’t all bad. Will miss you Manor Park.

Jake Powell The memory I will never forget is when I wasn’t sure if I could make it on the ski trip as I went and put my finger through a car window on my bike, luck was on my side and I was determined to make it on that trip, and safe to say Italy didn’t let me down. I will look back and smile at my time at manor park. Thank you everyone.

Danny Pail Wasn’t sure I would even make it through to see the end at times, safe to say I have been a handful numerous times, but I did it I have come out the other side more mature and more grown up and I have manor park to thank for that!

Louise roberts I think I definitely lived up to the work hard play harder saying. The trips the parties, the laughter all memories that I can look back on and be happy of my time at manor park.

Laura Meads I would say my journey is ending but manor park has just been the start of my journey, and I even managed to pick up a few friend for life along the way. I will miss spending everyday with these peoples sitting in class waiting for lunch just so we can gossip and cause mischief.

Louis Wile Amazing multi tasking

Never before have I seen a man who can combine doing Physics homework with playing computer games and taking a phone call! Your multi-tasking skills are something to be admired, my friend!

I know great things await you, but remember when you get rich that I deserve 10% of your future earnings.

Teacher

Sam Spence Competitive, Loyal, Laughter

Dominic Sunders Forgetful, Clumsy, Fun

He is the most competitive person I know. Everyone would fear going against his team in pe as you knew he wouldn’t give up until he had won. Aside from that he is also the person who would be there be by my side to create mischief I guess you could say we were quite the double act!

Rachel May Smiley, Happy, Carefree

Dan will always be remembered as the guy who regularly loses his phone. He is a nice chap who gets on well with everyone, laughs, is decent at sport and is fun to be around. He will also be remembered as the guy who spent way too much money doing up an awful car! Best wishes for the future, wherever it takes you!

Leanna Maccy Loves a tea

I can’t say I was always the best student but I feel I provided endless entertainment and kept the teachers on the toes! I think I definitely lived up to the work hard play harder saying. The trips the parties, the laughter all memories that I can look back on and be happy of my time at manor park.

Billie Hampton Focused, Loud, Bubbly

The craziest, funniest and loudest person who I call my best friend. I couldn’t have done this journey without her. She has been there through everything from the stressful exam periods to the crazy parties, safe to say it wouldn’t have been the same without her. Lots more memories to be made, I can’t wait to see what the future holds for us.

01252 368328

www.merrang.co.uk

Honestly I can’t remember when we met… Awkward… Since then we’ve had a mountain of good memories and catch phrases from you none of which stand out more than your constant demand for tea. Luckily for me, you are always there in times of trouble and chip in with good advice when I need it and the occasional “sucks to be you”! Miss you! x

Laura Watson Nocturnal, Tea, Crazy

Laura, the one who goes nocturnal in the holidays. The tea club regular. The one who broke the record for most time spent at kids club and knows the most random collection of people for it. You came to Sarah’s rescue when the burglar broke in and lightened the mood by ordering pizza as the police scanned for fingerprints. Best of luck for the future! Xxx

info@merrang.co.uk

Shannon Roberts

Alex Lloyd

What Alex lacks in intelligence, he doesn’t really make up for in anything. Alex’s early years are a mystery as he wasn’t often seen during Year 10. Some say it is because we couldn’t see his face past his fringe, but he claims that a local girl kidnapped him and he developed Stockholm syndrome. All the best mate, from Reece!

Everyone who knows Shannon will know how seriously she takes life, so it is wise never to be sarcastic around her or it will go over her head. Her impeccable capacity to turn any phrase into an innuendo means that you have to be careful what you say around her. She hopes to study psychology at Uni where she will put her social abilities, especially her notorious oral skills , to good use.

Reece Pake

Reece is a poster child for prohibition. While sober he is loving, kind and pleasantly philosophical – showing fine regard for other’s ideas and opinions. Sadly, when under the influence of ‘fire water’ a darker side emerges.

Staggering from table to table, he loudly proclaims his fierce political ambitions or recounts an embellished drunken fable.

Just say no, Reece, just say no.

Kelly McCarthy

Tom Peil

Tom has a super power: The ability to fall asleep in any location. While this power has not enabled Tom to solve mysteries or apprehend any villains, he is very proud of this fact. His lack of hero outfit is likely due to his indecisiveness.

If you would like an example of this, simply ask Tom whether or not he is indecisive.

Year 12 didn’t get off to the best start for Kelly, when the full force of her vodka obsession meant that she failed to attend her own party.

Kelly has managed to discover the potential for making even more friends at school – mainly males in the year below! Upon passing her driving test 4th time lucky, Kelly was able to transform her relationship with Tom from constant texting to taxi service. Sadly their romance wasn’t meant to be, so I hope the younger males at her Uni are ready for her to join them as a fresher.

Katie Daper

Katie’s powerful desire to get into medical school is well known and has brought to light her crazy and obsessive nature, including her elbowing students in the face to ensure she is first into lessons.

Her future at Oxford is bound to be a success just as long as she manages to stay cheerful and doesn’t get as addicted to Farmville as she almost did this year.

Daniel O’Connor

Claire Dalla

Well I guess this is it, the years that I dreaded at the start have flown by. The best part has to be the memories I made with my mates at lunch and every little break we could get, even when the teachers back was turned! Memories lasting forever even looking back at the numerous times the girls screamed everytime the football went near them, you would have thought in all those years they would have changed where they sat! At Least we got a laugh out of it!

Where to start. My time at manor house has had both ups and downs filled mainly with tears of happiness.

As much as there are elements of education that aren’t my favourite I will miss seeing the people everyday and making countless memories.

I have made friends that will last me a life time and couldn’t have asked for better teachers to get me through these tough years, even putting up with us at our worst. Thank you manor park for everything.

Danielle Sazzle

Vicky Peters

Danielle, you are a fantastic artist and you have amazed me a lot with how you managed to draw me better than I actually look haha!

I hope you have a lovely and successful life ahead and try to get used to the rain here! x

She is one of the nicest people I have ever met, a true friend who I hope will be there throughout the rest of my life. She may have her blonde moments but that’s what we all loved about her! Good luck x

Sarah Hayes

Rob White

I met Sarah at the start of Year 8 and we have been friends ever since. She is always there to put a smile on my face.

He is the person who would be there be by my side to create mischief I guess you could say we were quite the double act! Thanks for everything mate!

Lacie Cullen

Zac Kale How does one fit the Zackmeister into a few lines? The man, the legend, the £20 he promised to give me if I write something nice in here about him! He is funny, kind and someone you know always has your back. Good luck in your future adventures mate.

I would say my journey is ending but manor park has just been the start of my journey, and I even managed to pick up a few friend for life along the way.

Jade Almede

saskia Remer

Her family are super important to this girl. Her lovely parents have made sure she grew up into a loving, kind young woman and I take my hat off to them! She loves making videos and will definitely become a director when she is older! Much love xxx

I have loved teaching Year 11s They have been a standout year group! Its rare to see such a wellbalanced and enthusiastic group of students, musical, artsy, academic and crazy at times. They have been a complete joy to teach and I wish them all the luck for the future!

Scott Tinsy The memories manor park have given me are endless. The memory I will never forget is when I wasn’t sure if I could make it on the ski trip as I went and put my finger through a car window on my bike, luck was on my side and I was determined to make it on that trip, and safe to say Italy didn’t let me down, even if I did have everyone watching me 24/7 (I guess nearly flying off the edge of the mountain didn’t help either oops.) I will look back and smile at my time at manor park. Thank you everyone.

Luke Shaze Hot geek at your service. Manor park has given me the confidence I needed and allowed me to mature into the person I hoped I would become (one surrounded by girls and envied by all the preppy boys ha!)

On a serious note I am moving on to university where I can continue to be glued to my computer screen and eventually make a living playing video games! Thanks to everyone that stood by my side I am truly greatful.

Jade Almede I couldn’t have got through these years without my friends and family. The support they have given me has been amazing and has helped me to become the person I am at the end of this journey. I have a passion for making videos and one day hope to become a director! Good luck to everyone! xxx

Ishan Sharma Wasn’t sure I would even make it through to see the end at times, safe to say I have been a handful numerous times, but I did it, I have come out the other side more mature and more grown up and I have Manor Park to thank for that as well as all my friends and family.

Nikki Spence I have made some true friends over these years.

I always tried to remain positive yet focused and it paid off in the end as I could not have asked for better grades. It was very hard at times but I have to take my hat off to the teachers, they know their stuff!

Thank you.

The time has come to leave Manor Park and while it is one of the saddest times to wave goodbye to it all, I will have my best friends I have made by my side to create even more crazy memories to look back on.

Will miss Manor Park.

Sarah Tudor I would not change anything about my time at Manor Park. It has involved a whirlwind of emotions with many bumps along the road. The memories I have will keep me laughing in years to come!

Daisy Lowe I would say my journey is ending but Manor Park has just been the start of my journey, and I even managed to pick up a few friends for life along the way. I will miss spending everyday with these people, sitting in class waiting for lunch just so we can gossip and cause mischief.

Jordan Gaile I have met some fantastic mates who pushed me through the tough times. I’ve had so many laughs over the years as well and will miss all the lunch time footy games. Hopefully I will continue to see everyone outside of Manor Park.

Where I will be in 10 years Starring in a theatre production My time at Manor Park with Claire has had both ups and downs filled with tears of happiness and laughter. I will miss making countless memories every day with her within Manor Park however I know that we will continue to be the best of friends. I will never forget the moment where we just burst into laughter in Miss Smith’s class and could not stop. She is now moving on to further education and I know she will come out on top with her dream career.

Thank you Claire for being a true friend. Sammy x

Date of Birth: 22.02.92 Favourite Memory There are too many to choose from! Just meeting all the amazing people!

Where I will be in 10 years Hopefully will be a full time vet!

She is one of the nicest people I have ever met, a true friend who I hope will be there throughout the rest of my life. She may have her ‘blonde’ moments but that’s what we all loved about her, her lack of common sense gave us all the laughter we needed at the toughest of times. So relaxed yet a straight A student, I don’t know how she did it but I know she will go on to do extremely well in life due to her ability to fluke her way through any situation ha!

Well done girl! Your friend and sidekick for life. Sarah x

CLASS 11D MESSAGE FROM MR ANDERSON I can’t quite believe I am writing this, time has flown by and I can happily say they have been some of the most interesting few years with this lot. I have had the pleasure of teaching and helping all of you through your journey at Manor Park. We may have had some tough times but you all worked as a team and came out on top.

You are all so full of talent and personality, which is a killer combination. I can even say that I will miss the mockery, and ‘banter’ as you all call it. You have all kept me smiling and it has been simply amazing from start to finish. I wish you all the best of luck! Don’t forget Mr Anderson when you are all rich and famous!

At the start of our final year we all headed off for a two day trip to the Avon Tyrrell Outdoor Activity Centre in the New Forest. There were loads of activities for everyone to get involved in, from orienteering, high ropes, team building exercises, canoeing and the final activity of raft building.

Everyone separated into 4 different teams and spent the day collecting points for all the different activities and towards the end of the day we were able to total up our points and “buy” materials for our raft. Mr Anderson became very competitive and was trying to steal the other team’s points! Naughty Teacher!

Frequently Asked

Questions

How much will my yearbook cost?

To find out the latest prices and any promotions it’s best to call us on 01252 368328. See indicative pricing on page 4.

, ZDQW WR GHVLJQ RXU <HDUERRN RIĂ LQH FDQ , VWLOO XVH 0HUUDQJ" Of course!! Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll just need you to format your pages a certain way and supply them to us as PDFâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. Its best to give us a call and we can talk you through this.

How long does it take?

Proofing, printing and delivery of your yearbooks takes six weeks in total, but at quieter times we can look at reducing this.

Can someone from Boomerang come see us and train us on the site?

Of course! Dependent on where you are we can send one of our team to come and visit you. If thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not possible we can arrange for someone to contact you remotely via video or telephone call.

Do we need a Teacher to be involved in the book?

We will require a representative from the school to give final approval for the yearbook.

Why produce a yearbook when we have social media sites like Facebook and Twitter?

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a big fan of social media too but who knows if Facebook will be around in 10 years time? Your yearbook is a physical book you can keep for years and years.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to use a local printer instead of Merrang!

With Merrang you are getting the full service and support that you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get with a local printer. We specialise in designing and printing yearbooks. We know how to make your memories into a well produced book.
