Fairfield Dreamscheme report on the Olympic Torch on its way through Buxton

Olympic Torches Young people from the Dreamscheme in Fairfield worked hard all afternoon, to capture the spirit of Buxton on 29th June.  They had prepared themselves with photography skills and interview questions to find out what people thought about the historic moment as the Olympic flame entered the town.

Orange BandstandA reported 15,000 people flooded the town centre to see the International Market, High Peak Community Arts’ Yurt and highlights from the Buxton Fringe Festival.

The young reporters grabbed interviews with Olympic officials and local torch bearers.  They were snapped with the mayor and gathered their own reflections on the day.

 

And here is the film they’ve made using the clips they collected:
