In 2008, Dean Bowen was commissioned by Canterbury Primary School, Melbourne to create the School's Centennial Sculpture, commemorating the school's centenary in 2008. This significant sculpture celebrates childhood and is sited at the front of the school beneath the Talbot Oak, otherwise known as the Friendship tree. The sculpture was unveiled by Lady Southey AC on the 23rd of October 2008 to mark the final celebration of Cantebury Primary School's past 100 years.
