The school has held a number of events throughout the year to mark the occasion and on Wednesday staged Carnivale.
Students, parents and teachers were treated to an action-packed day of fun activities, including stalls and demonstrations.
A Squirrel helicopter from HMAS Albatross’ 723 Squadron dropped in, allowing students to sit in the pilots’ seats, while Illaroo Road Rural Fire Service brigade also allowed students to use the fire hoses and sit in the trucks.
Principal Peter Collins put himself in the firing line, acting as the target at the wet sponge throwing competition, which was just one of many popular games played on the day.
