    I am so bringing you down here some time.

    Prolly after I move over there, when I start plans on visiting family and friends back over here.

    Or for a PJ tour.

    FUCK NOOOOOOOOO! :eek: We were told it starts the following week, that's why that weekend was decided on. Maybe it's different dates for different states?? and that's a nationwide date range?
    FARK me, no!
    I know we'll still have a ball, but we've got some fun things planned that I'd rather not have a bunch of 'schoolies' spoiling.

    Brad is right.

    the queensland school year for year 12 finishes on friday the 16th, we finish a week before N.S.W up here.

    http://education.qld.gov.au/public_media/calendar/calendar2007.pdf

    right down the bottom, orange rectangle that says final dates of school.


    I think this is why you've had to wait for approval for accommodation and some have turned you down.

    schoolies week for queenslanders starts on the 17th

    but then the N.S.W students come up, cause Qld school finishes on the 16th, then NSW a week later.

    schoolies on the G.C normally goes for 2 weeks. but the second week is not as bad.

    Damn! The kids who decide to come up from NSW will probably be worse than the ones from Qld. :eek:
