Me too - one time after an end of term dinner at uni I had a major hangover and a mate said if you have something to eat and hold it down you will feel better. So I gave the rubbery scrambled eggs a go but duly bought them back up. When I complained to my mate about his advice he said I did specify IF you held it downScrambled eggs make me think of the day after the night before parties.
football is life
its all funny thoif you treat it as a comedy sportstainment Not a sport as such.Not anymore it's not. It's an awful spectacle these days with confusing rules and umpire interpretations of these rules.
that isn’t unusual for year 12 though. NSW hsc was term 4 to term 3, so farewell stuff in grand final week. And if you got that far in coursework without dropping out and merely sat exams you can’t exactly pass or fail, just atar ranked. I don’t remember what it was called either, but was an institution farewell for the students as a school-going cohort body basically, together for the last time. After that I just rocked up for the couple subject exams (which could be invigilated anywhere really, could imagine some schools possibly not even having the exams on-site).Schools holding graduation ceremonies before the kids have even sat their exams.
I understand wanting to ensure everyone is included, but in our day we at least called it something else.
i dont get how schools start year 12 stuff at end of year 11?
like if the curriculum isnt full enough, add some life skills courses like doing your taxes, changing tyres and oil on your car, how not to be a shit-campaigner , etc
100% i do - when i did year11 it went to dec, and we didnt start year 12 til the next yearThat is all stuff parents should teach their kids but the lazy campaigners want to palm it all off on the schools.
That used to be what the thick kids were taught.i dont get how schools start year 12 stuff at end of year 11?

My previous school there was an issue because the year 11s ordered and received their senior jerseys before the end of the year and were wearing them. This of course didn't go over well with the year 12s.i dont get how schools start year 12 stuff at end of year 11?

Thats fantasticOne of my good friends is a high school teacher at one of an apparently growing number of schools acting on research that shows 15 as the critical age of social development. Their year 9 is separated entirely from the rest of the school in a different part of the campus, and for that year reading, writing and arithmetic all take a back seat/become a distant secondary priority to social development, respectful & healthy relationships, spirituality, an element of life skills like cooking (I don't know whether changing a tyre is included), and basically not being a shit campaigner.
Been going on for a while (separating the year 9s)How do financially illiterate parents who were never educated with money have the knowledge to teach their kids anything?
We need to be teaching financial literacy in schools, hoping parents will do it only perpetuates the cycle of poverty.

It sounds like a really interesting idea, I kind of wish I knew someone with a kid at the school to get that perspective on it.
Same. I was a mongrelI turned into a ****ing banshee in year 9. It was like I’d been possessed. Only lasted the year, really.
It makes sense because there’s just as much if not more content to cover in Year 12 as other years but 25% less time to cover it in with more stress . My school didn’t do it in the 2000s but other schools already were , and that was the rationalei dont get how schools start year 12 stuff at end of year 11?

Not a defense of the AFL but honestly most sports are pretty similar to this.its all funny thoif you treat it as a comedy sportstainment Not a sport as such.
Too many inherent unfairness and narratives and biases. And amateur ish things. Like umpiring. And making it up on the run.
It tries to be a sport like professional sports elsewhere. But its not. And if you look at it through that lense. Its. So. God. Damned. Funny. And entertaining
