![](/data/testnews/images/approved/50th_drone_img_little_l.jpg)
As part of our 50th Golden Jubilee, over 400 of our key stage 3 students have taken part in a large-scale aerial photo using the latest drone technology and a HD camera to mark this special anniversary. The children and staff came together to mark out the number 50 on the school field with the drone camera capturing some incredible in-flight images.
Students enjoyed participating in this unique experience with many speaking individually to the photographer about the process of capturing the image and the technology that was used.
KHCA intends to use this image and others collected throughout the year to celebrate the occasion in school.
We are sure you will agree the final result looks stunning and this image will provide a lasting memory for many years to come.
