Wise beyond their years

Prep students and staff at St Anthony’s School turned a rare vintage, dressing up as 100 year olds to mark 100 days of Prep.

On 31 July, the ‘centenarians’ paraded in front of the whole school body, and posed for photos with parents at a 100 Days of Prep photo frame.

Students also drew themselves as 100 year olds, designed ‘100’-styled glasses and grooved to a bubble and light disco.

“Everyone had a wonderful day and the students were very excited to share this special occasion with each other and our school community,” school spokesperson Deana Portia said.

Students also took home a keepsake keyring featuring a photo of themselves in costume.
