Big G go Boom?

I don’t much fancy the thought of five year olds or even pre-schoolers sharing the playground with sixteen-year-olds.

The saabs did orright in India.

Well I guess ruling by a fiat is better than a saab 😉

“Mega” is so 1990s. If we’re planning for the future, it should be at least a “Giga” or even “Tera” school. Yeah…Tera-School has a nice ring to it.

I have to say, my limited experience with Ginninderra High suggests that, if nothing else, the demolition won’t be a great loss to the architectural community.

has anyone noticed that PRIOR to majority governemnent the stanhope crew were obsessed with consultation and setup myriad community consulting groups.

with majority govt, they dont consult at all – rule by fiat instead.

I think we should dub it “ULTRA-SCHOOL”

That sounds far more scarier. Imagine turning up for hte year nine debating championships to face off against “TEAM ULTRA-SCHOOL”.

Ginninderra High held 1200+ students during its prime (late 80’s).
I think it’s a bit sad, seeing as though I spent 4 good years there, but the place has gone to shit since then…
David Southern was an excellent principal, but once he left, the downhill slide began….

It’s some ‘super school’ with a 1500 kid capacity. Parents aren’t happy coz the government’s pretty keen on the idea and they havent been consulted. Ginni will have to be demolished, and preschools and primary schools around in Holt and Higgins would have to close.
And yet Dunlop doesn’t even have a primary school yet…a student was crying on air on 2CC about it

Can’t say I’ve heard anything about this, but the thought of “super schools” is somewhat frightening on the basis that the pupils would then be know as “super students”.

I think this is an oxymoron given our schools current literacy levels.
