Leavers Books
If your time at school is coming to an end, then a leavers book is the perfect way to take your memories with you.
Whether you’re finishing up Year 6 or Year 11, a leavers book gives you the chance to create something meaningful that you and your classmates will look back on for years to come.
What is a leavers book?
A leavers book is a bit like a professionally made scrapbook that celebrates all of the people and the experiences that shaped your time at school. Tailored to suit your year group, a leavers book gives you the chance to document all the brilliant times you had and the achievements your year-group made.
A typical school leavers book will include messages from your headteacher or head of year, your tutor and other teachers, as well as student profiles including photos, quotes and a description. You can create photo montages featuring trips, events and prom pics and have a bit of fun creating feature pages that include things like awards, quizzes and ‘most likely to’s’.
"Did you know? Our leavers books last up to 400 million times longer than an average Snapchat photo!"
How do you make a leavers book?
Leavers books are an awesome way to sign off from school but the prospect of making one can be daunting. Luckily, we’ve come up with a stress free system that’s easy to use and accessible to everyone.
We’ve done the hard work for you by creating hundreds of professionally designed leavers book page templates. Simply choose your favourite and start building your own pages using Microsoft Publisher, Powerpoint or Adobe InDesign.
Adding your own content, photos and text is really easy because you’ll be using software you, your classmates and teachers are already familiar with. And if at any point you need some help, the team at Hardy’s are always on hand to guide you through - in fact, one of the biggest reasons students and teachers keep coming back to us is thanks to our amazing customer service.

Customer Comments
Thanks very much for your help, and if we don’t speak again thank you again for producing our excellent yearbooks. I will recommend you to next year’s year team.
Can I please pass on my grateful thanks to your brilliant team. I have been a bit behind with things this year due to one thing or another and your ladies have really gone above and beyond to get our yearbooks and hoody/sweatshirt orders completed in time to be delivered.
Your ladies could not have been kinder or more thoughtful in supporting us through a very difficult period while we came to terms with that loss. I very much appreciate everything they have done.
Thank you for all your help/support. As this was the first year using Hardys and I feel it has been a positive experience I will be passing the details onto current Head of Year 10 so that she can use the services offered.
Thanks for being so quick with the year book it's looks amazing! We would love to use your services again for 2021 so when you're ready please send me all of the info.
This year was supposed to be strictly a one off, but my daughter is in the year below so I suspect the yearbook will be back by popular demand haha! It will be me again.
First and foremost I would like to say thank you for publishing our yearbook. I have received the final copy and they look fantastic.
I have dealt with Hardy's for the past 7 years and cannot fault them. Always quick to respond and help out. Cheapest yearbooks around and easy for students to produce the book.
I just wanted to say thank you for delivering our yearbooks promptly. I have thoroughly enjoyed looking through my copy and I know our students will cherish theirs. A truly professional job!
