REMEMBER the days of the old schoolyard?
Beaconhills College students do, after their annual ‘Olden Days’ dress-up day at the Pakenham Junior School recently.
Year 2 students have studied ‘Our local area – now and then’ as part of their history lessons and the day was an exciting finale to the term.
They took part in a number of activities including ‘olden day’ games and making damper dressed in their best olden day gear.
