Pupils also had the chance to be included in an aerial whole school photograph, where they stood in the shape of the number 90 in the school grounds and a photo was taken using a drone camera.
Chloe Webster, Head of School at Thomas Hinderwell School, part of the David Ross Education Trust, said: “It’s brilliant to have the opportunity to mark such an important day in our school’s history.”
“Today has captured the vibrant, community feel of our school.
