A PANICKED group of Schoolies were trapped for more than one hour in a hotel lift after cramming almost 30 people into the elevator

Pretty overrated tbh. Everyone thinks it will be this 3 day sex bender but it really doesn't end up like that for most people I know anyway.

 

[ShanDog]

Never went. Wasn't interested. Hope my kids don't either.

I was in a country (ish) area so we just had a week of piss ups... Nothing really planned though. So no different to the final year of school for me really!

I wonder what the % is that go to actual official organised events .v. not.

(I reckon we'd have a fair few toolies on here too btw....)

 

[JG22]

It's really not that bad. Just a genuine bit of fun between mates.

You'd be pretty boring if you didn't want to do anything.

You don't have to go GC

Haha yeah put that peer pressure on, just like a teen!

 

[PP34]

Didn't go and the longer it gets since finishing school the more I'm glad I didn't. At the time it was pretty shit but I really didn't miss out on much.

Have had plenty of other fun times.

Same, but it also wasnt that big when I graduated circa 1997.

As for your kids, i think it would be simple. Make them pay for it- they may have doubts if they have to shell out $1000++ on just a few nights in Surfers.

Spring break would be more enjoyable to go to yeah?

Spring break is a mass orgy. Apparently.

A mate of mine worked at the Pontins Holiday Park in Camber Sands, I stayed down there for a few days when I visited him but as a holiday destination it left a lot to be desired, it's certainly no Gold Coast or Cancun.

Anyone know when the Schoolies tradition started?
I do not recall it when I did HSC back in the 70s

 

[Shell]

I think late 90s/early 2000?
