I began treating them as they had treated me and now they just give me a very wide berth and go out of their way to be pleasant to me. I don't forget things though and keep them all on their toes.
Unfortunately, you'll always get the odd butt hole in every job. Your current school is not the be all and end all of everything. Come on down to Melbourne and see what a normal school is like. Could probably hook you up with a job also.
Keep your chin up and always remember "it's only a job"

Lolly, drop me a private message and we can take it from there. Believe me, there was no one who was as homesick as me. I was going home every time i was feeling down or just having a bad day. 21 months later and i'm still here. Don't stay at the school if you're not happy, but wait and see what the new principal is like. The principal at my school has got to be the best bloke i've ever worked for. What are you qualified to teach? There could be a serious job offer here. Stop worrying about things and just enjoy Australia, try to get your 2 years in and apply for citizenship, then the option is always open for you to come back if you decide to go back to Boro (gods back yard, ha ha).
Keep things in perspective and once again "it's only a job"
Take care and be positive
