The Last Day of School isn’t just the end of another semester — it’s a milestone, a celebration, and the start of something new. It’s the one day where laughter echoes louder, memories are made faster, and rules tend to loosen just enough for a little fun. Before you toss your backpack in the air and head off into summer, make sure you try these 7 epic, must-do things that make the last day truly unforgettable.

1. Have A Water Balloon Battle (Or Get Soaked Some Other Way)

What could be more fun than looking like a drowned rat on the last day of school? Get your friends together and prepare tons of water balloons to be ready to fire on your graduation day. But make sure you don’t throw them at the principal or any teacher’s computer or documents. Water balloon throwing is not just a normal game, it is a rite of passage! Remember, youth passes by in a flash, so let’s cherish every moment and make some unforgettable memories together!

2. Exchange Guestbooks With Friends

Exchanging guestbooks with friends is one of the most memorable things on the last day of school. Give your scrapbook to your closest friends, let them write down what they think and want to tell you or the secrets they have not had the chance to tell you. I promise you’ll feel so touched and probably find yourself smiling or laughing as you read their sweet notes. That shows how much your friends value and love you. 

Even when you write a guestbook for someone, the excitement is just unbeatable! Knowing that your words might bring a smile or even a happy tear to their face is an amazing feeling. The excitement is because when reading the lines you write, the other person will cry or smile because of the lines you write!

3. Make A Ton Of Memorable Pictures With Your Friends

Don’t forget to take photos! Don’t forget to take photos! Don’t forget to take photos! Important things are said three times! Youthful memories are the most precious because of their innocence, naivety, and purity. Take photos with your friends to mark the milestone of “growing up” together.

It’s a great idea to take photos with everyone on the last day of school, since after graduation, you might all head in different directions, and meeting up again could be tough. And if you’re feeling brave, why not ask for a photo with that ex-lover or crush from school? You might not get another chance to see them!

 In movies, characters always have those magical reunions, but in real life, it doesn’t happen as often. So bring your camera or phone and prepare a lot of memory for tons of photos for the graduation ceremony.

4. Sign And Leave Wishes For Each Other On Uniform Shirts

One of the most popular activities for students is signing each other’s shirts on the last day of school. It was such a sweet way to show just how close we were. You can leave some lovely wishes on your friend’s shirt along with your signature. Remember to use a non-fading pen so that when you wash the shirt, all the memories won’t be “washed away”. Later, when we grow up and accidentally see this shirt, a stream of memorable memories from school will flood into your mind. It’s a great reminder of those amazing times and the awesome friends we made along the way!

5. Say A Real “Thank You” To Your Teachers

Before you head out on the last day of school, don’t forget to meet and thank each teacher who taught you. Even though they sometimes get angry or punish you during the learning process, all of that only happens because they love and care about you. Give them a sincere thank you and apologize for their mischievous, destructive times under the title of a student under that school. Because later when you meet again, you and them are no longer teachers and students.

 Sometimes they will give you advice when you grow up and tell you to do well on the exam, that’s the last thing they can do for their “children”. Cherish those things because it only happens once in a lifetime. Later, no one will love and help you like a “second mother” like them.

6. Make A Commemorative Vlog For Yourself 10 Years Later

Making a video for yourself 10 years from now is a great idea on the last day of school. Take anything that can record your video and walk around, interviewing each person in the class with questions like “What do you want to say to yourself 10 years from now?” or “What are you doing 10 years from now?” I can assure you that later, when we have the opportunity to sit together and watch this video again, none of us will not be moved when we see ourselves in our innocent, pure, and ambitious uniforms. As we grow up and achieve various successes, we often lose the innocence and naivety of our student days.

7. Give A Hug Or High-Five Goodbye To Your Closed Friends

A final goodbye before leaving each other is one of the most meaningful actions on the last day of school! We used to go everywhere together: go to school together, skip school, and make trouble. But now, we have grown up, each of us has our own path, no one is the same, and no one must automatically walk on that path. 

Let’s give each other goodbyes and long hugs, because we have become a part of each other’s youth and become the most memorable memories in life. Maybe in the future we will hardly meet each other, but always remember the memories we once had. 

Finally, let’s wish each other the best as we move forward in life. Let’s succeed together in life; it doesn’t matter who succeeds first!

☀️ One Last Thing…

You don’t get many “last days” — so don’t waste this one scrolling on your phone. Soak it in. Laugh a little louder. Hug your friends tighter. And enjoy every second of this wild, wonderful ending to your school year on the last day of school
