Hello All

:O Surprised to see me back? Miss me? 'Course you did.... :)
I won't be posting much, I'm sorry, but if you know anything about Aussie schooling, year 9 and 10 are absolutely crucial.... I bet you have no idea what I'm talking about, do you? Weeelll...... Let me elaborate....

Your lesson for the day: Australian Schooling
Australia schooling is divided up into stages:
Kindergarten - I don't really class it a school, it's more of a, preperation....
Stage 1 - Year 1 and 2, easiest years ever :)
Stage 2 - Year 3 and 4, hard-ish, but when you look back, you realise how stupid you actually were >.<
Stage 3 - Year 5 and 6, now we're heading into the last two years of Primary School, Year five, basically easy, year six, hard... :S

High School
Stage 4 - Year 7 and 8, Blugde years XD
Stage 5 - Year 9 and 10, okay, now it is hard, and lots of presure, absolutely crucial if you want to have a future, you see, in year 10, you take the school certificate exams, which is basically everything you learned in your school years, and it is nerve racking, If you don't pass your exams, you don't get your school certificate, and you have to repeat year 10 until you do, otherwise, no-one will want to hire you, ever.... After year 10, you can drop out, but you have to get an appretership, have a job ready, go on the dole (I am not explaining that, too much to go into) or join the army/navy/air force....
Stage 6 - Year 11 and 12, these years are optional, as I said before.... These years are ABSOLUTELY CRUCIAL... In year 12, you take the high school certificat exams, and the scores you get determine wich university you go to..... :S

BUT if you chose to do the international Backloriet, you don't have to do the School certificate or the High School Certificate (SC and HSC).... The IB means you can go to any uni/college or work anywhere around the world XD

Well, there is your lesson for the day XD

So, I'm in year nine, and very bussy, I have hooping cough atm, so I'm not at school, I've actually been banned from campus till I recover, (The bastards, I'm on medication for it, so it is no-longer contageous, but, no, I still have to miss out on my work) So i can post, but after I'm back, please don't bug me to post.....
