Around the Corner: Costumes and Characters

Foundation: 100 Days of School Celebration – Friday 8th August
We are excited to celebrate a special milestone in Foundation – our 100th day of school!
On Friday 8th August, we’ll be marking 100 Days of Learning with the theme: “100 Days Smarter!” To make the day extra fun, Foundation students are encouraged to come to school dressed as someone who is “100 days smarter”. This could be anything from a clever costume, glasses and suspenders, or even a creative take on the number 100!
There will be a range of fun and engaging activities throughout the day to celebrate all the growth, learning, and achievements our students have made over the past 100 days.
Stay tuned - we’ll be sharing lots of fun photos from our 100 Days of School Celebration.
