Back to the 90s

Category: entertainment

For a lot of us it has been close to (if not over) 20 years since we graduated high school. Reunions have come and gone but the memories of our school years remain. As you send the kids off, bags packed for a new school year, we thought it would be fun to take a trip down memory lane and revisit some of our unforgettable fun-filled school things!

You know you were a 90s kid when…

Covering your schoolbooks in contact without bubbles was your proudest achievement. Practising your future husband’s name in graffiti-style writing would give you all the street cred. Your most loved and adored childhood pet was a pack of Sea Monkeys.

The self-validation of receiving a Scratch ’n’ Sniff sticker on your homework was the highlight of your day. Lip Smackers were a hot commodity and you knew all the flavours. Gel pens were more than just a writing tool; they were a form of body art.

Everyone wanted your Dunkaroos at recess. You sorted out all your life problems and decisions with a chatterbox. Playing handball every recess and lunch was mandatory.

No matter how different the classroom trends, there’s one thing that will stay the same: school will always be the best years of their life.
