Re: Vicky Point High
Thanks all
Theres no bullying going on. He doesnt want to change schools as he said he has mates there, but yet hes still really down.
Hes prob the youngest in the year as hes not 16 til december so theyre all older and more mature that him.
We put him in that year as we didnt want him to re-do a school year, think that was a big mistake
I suppose if hes unhappy, now if we move him things couldnt be any worse...could they
On a lighter note our youngest is in year 9 and he loves it!!
Heather ,hope Jenna's happy there...its not all bad like I said my youngest is doing great!

Sorry jumped on your thread, it's easy to get carried away on here!!! He sounds a bit like a typical teenager! My nephew sounds exactly the same. Just an idea but is there anything he's interested in he could take up outside of school. Sports club, something musical perhaps. My nephew, after years of hating all sports has joined a rugby team & seems to really enjoy it. Been on a wks activity holiday with them etc Stills hates school though!!!
Good Luck

More fun will be the parking. RACQ trip planner will give you some idea
http://www.racq.com.au/cps/rde/xchg/...r_ENA_HTML.htm
Nearest train is cleveland ( 10 mins from vicky ), and then 55 mins to the city ( it ain't fast ), or you could drive to Garden city (25 mins maybe), and catch the bus ( 20 mins - it has its own road !! )
When you get here, you'll find that most of bayside is 20 mins apart.

Re: Vicky Point High
Hi Hilary
I have also got a 16 year old in year 11 at Vicky Point High. He seems happy enough there but he hardly mentions school.
I think one of the worst things about the senior years in Australia (11 and 12) is that there are still some kids at school that don't want to be there. They can be disruptive as they are not allowed to leave school until they have a job or an apprenticeship.
My daughter should be going there next year in year 8. It would be nice if you could let me know what you think of the school.
