oh yea, I know about baulko
they're like one of the most under-funded selective schools in the state - or so they tell me
.
I can most certainly see how you can appreciate barker over it! and the money you pay does seem to pay off over there.
Barker has quite a nice campus actually.
But frankly, my money was better spent at my old school than at knox. The fees were like a thousand, and we had all the buildings we needed, as well as equipment...and aircon! hehe.
Knox has alot of stuff, but alot of the money goes into making the teachers happy, and making certain parts of the school prestigious.
I was involved in quite a bit of stuff. It was pretty hard getting funding for the projects I was trying to push through. One of them, was to simply get new punching bags, and that had been pushed for more than 4yrs, and they still don't have them! Most of the money goes into the 'big' sports, like rugby, n soccer, and so on. I don't think they even need that much actually - well they're not in as much need as other areas.
But our school could so use their money more efficiently. They're working more on trying to maintain the outer image, rather than addressing alot of necessities.
but oh well, not my prob anymore, hehe.
