Prep's 100 Days of School Celebrations

The 100 Days of School celebration is a special and cherished tradition at A.B Paterson College.

It is not just a fun event for our students, but also a meaningful way to look back on how far each and every child has gone in their first formal year of schooling.

During this celebration, our students reach a significant milestone, and we take the time to acknowledge their achievements and hard work. By doing so, we encourage them to feel proud of their progress and inspire them to keep learning and exploring new things.

On Wednesday 26 July, all Prep students celebrated their 100th day of school. All students enjoyed participating in learning opportunities centred around the number 100. There were many laughs and excitement as the students participated in each activity and they enjoyed a well-deserved and delicious treat at lunchtime – a cupcake!

Our 100 Days of School celebration brings together our teachers, students, and parents, strengthening our College community. This supportive network creates an encouraging environment where children feel safe to ask questions, share their ideas, and seek help when needed.

As part of this celebration, we also encourage critical thinking and problem-solving skills. All children were asked to bring in 100 items – yes 100 items to school! Students enjoyed counting their items to see what 100 really looks like.

Overall, the 100 Days of School celebration is a significant milestone that represents the progress our children make in their education.
