Education Thread

[aussie1st]

Last year at school next year and going to take the major exam aka HSC. I find it weird that in Aus you finish at grade 12 and in New Zealand it finishes in grade 13. BTW Gilchrist do you live in sydney and if you do what school do you attend to?

Well basically at Uni we're the same age so it must be Aus start one year later than NZ.

It rocks! I advise you all to get this far, the final 3 years of education are the best.

PE (Oh yea :cool
IT(Theory)
" " (Kind of a blotch on a good day. Still survivable. Would have been fun with a better teacher

Kind of schedule I used to have. What's moral science and PE? And for what do you need to register at 7.45?

 

[Sureshot]

PE is sports. Also known as Physical Education.

We register over here for a legal thing to know who is attending lessons, etc.

 

[Skater]

Actually, registers are legal documents that comply with fire safety regulations. If there is a fire, the teachers can run down the register to see who is outside out of who was marked present.

EDIT: Tomorrow's timetable.

14:25 German

[ZexyZahid]

Still find it strange. Especially in lower schools.

Do you need to register only one time before each day starts or do you need to sign each time during each class you have? Now I hope this isn't disturbing.

Didn't know English people have to learn German too.

Ok, I get it. I used to like that too.

 

[Skater]

We have to take at least one Modern Foreign Language, French or German.

 

[ZexyZahid]

Ok, some people here used to have three languages at the end of the high school (for Americans), which means the time period before the university. They had Greek, Latin, French, German and English. And that is five of the ten objects they had for their end exams. (before going to university)
