MUCK-UP DAY!!

"Muck-up day" is the name given to an unofficial tradition within secondary schools where graduating students are involved with pranks and other activities on their last official day of school before leaving. These pranks are known in the United States and some other countries as senior prank. The practice has been banned within some schools, most commonly independent schools, and replaced with formal leaving activities to ensure students do not commit crimes or vandalise school or other property.

Muck-up Day is traditionally Australian.Muck-up day was a common practice in all schools in Australia until the 1980s, which was when principals started banning the practice. Most Australian schools still continue the tradition, but on a smaller scale. Many rival schools prank other schools that are considered rivals rather than their own. This causes the rivalry to grow.

Common pranks pulled either within the pranksters own schools or rival schools are; egging of buildings, graffiti, vandalism, trespassing, releasing of animals within buildings, moving of statues or monuments, starting barbecues in unusual places in unusual attire and using water pistols with anything but water in them.

Usually the school will announce a student free day (day off), on muck up day for the rest of the year levels to ensure the safety of other younger students. -i still need to go to school TT-

In Victoria, the 2006 muck-up day took place from the end of October till mid November, with the exact date depending on the school.

In South Australia, pranksters use their cars to drive around school areas and graffiti schools property and the cars of students who attend that school. It is labeled by the delinquents as the spray'n'flex. On the night before muck up day, schools place tight security around the grounds preventing any damage caused by students.
