KOOWEERUP Secondary College students briefly stepped away from their gruelling exam preparation for a day of dress-up fun for muck-up day celebrations earlier this month.
Students dressed in a range of costumes such as Dorothy from Wizard of Oz through to spooky Scream characters as part of the traditional rite of passage event on Thursday 23 October. The kids ran amok on the school oval, shooting water pistols at each other until noon when they retired home, drenched but pleased with the day’s efforts.
The day of fun was followed by endless hours of study ahead of the final year exams which began on Wednesday 29 October.
