Twins Tanishka and Riyansh enjoyed dressing up.

The special ‘100 days celebration’ saw children dress as if they were 100 years old on Friday.

School principal Karen Holdsworth presented the students with a special certificate and a cake was also enjoyed.

Throughout the day students enjoyed a range of activities, including bubble blowing, pass-the-parcel, musical chairs, crown making and smarties for being ‘100 days smarter.’

The children also wrote about what they thought they would be doing when they are 100 years old.

“The students had so much fun,” foundation/one teacher Renae Blake said.

“We are extremely grateful to all parents for supporting the day; my favourite thing was reading the students’ writing about when they are 100 and what they will be doing.

“There were many rich old ladies and men with no teeth, taking long naps.

“It’s important for our school to recognise this day, not just for the fun but to acknowledge the academic and social growth that these students have shown in their first 100 days of education – we are super proud of them all.”
