🎉 Last week our Prep students and teachers celebrated 100 Days of Prep! 🎉
They brought in collections of 100 items, grouped and counted them, made special crowns, counted all the way to 100, and enjoyed many more fun activities throughout the day. There were big smiles, happy faces, and so much excitement as the children proudly celebrated their learning. It was a wonderful day of celebrating this exciting milestone in their first year of school! 💯👑🌈
