YOUNGSTERS at a York school 'looked at life' to decide what should be buried in a time capsule at York Racecourse.

As part of the celebrations to mark the opening of the £20 million Ebor Stand, children at Knavesmire Primary School suggested items included in a capsule buried at the course yesterday.

Their items, including a skateboard and a scooter, symbolised life in 2003 and aim to give residents of the future the chance to look at what it was like to live in the opening years of the 21st Century.
