More than 3000 past and present students, staff and their families flocked to The Grange P-12 College last Friday to celebrate the school’s 21st anniversary.
There were rides, food stalls, henna tattooing, entertainment and the screening of a history film made by staff and students.
Assistant principal Tony Goodwin said the student population had grown from 129 to 1700 since the school opened its doors in 1993. “There have been massive changes in the past 20 years and the school has now become an educational institution where students can enjoy even better learning outcomes.”
Former principal Angelique Den Brinker, who passed over the reins to acting principal David Smiley earlier this year, returned for the celebrations.
