I was going to say facilities as well, but McRob fails in that regard (MHS on the other hand has great facilities).
Hmm, was just wondering, in what way though? :)

Well I haven't seen first hand exactly what they have and I just know that McRob's facilities suck from all the bitching about it. On the other hand, MHS's facilities rival that of private schools. They've got a full size oval, hockey field, outdoor basketball court, indoor gymnasium, and even a gym and swimming pool which you get access to for free. They're also well maintained since the gym and swimming pool are part of a commercial business (which means you will occasionally see people from outside the school using them). And really, the school is a motherfking castle. What greater facility do you want?

MHS is a castle on a hill? :P ...Srsly speaking it looks magnifique from the outside but when you go inside its a pure let-down especially with the quality of the rooms. Oh well...as shinny said our facilities rival private schools ;)

Lol agreed, but as a public/government school, it's facilities are comparatively very good. Great location too, South Yarra♥!

i really shouldn't laugh seeing as my girlfriend goes to macrob....... >.<


on topic:

Go to macrob (it sounds to be a much better school for you), srsly the whole scaling thing should be the smallest concideration when deiciding whether or not you should go

lol you thinking about it so much was the exact opposite to me when i was faced with the same decision (only for mhs) and i put little/no thought into the decision. Having said that i have not regretted my decision to stay at my present school one bit.

Lol who writes this stuff on urban dictionary? Is it editable by anyone?
St Caths: a school in Toorak, Victoria. also known as the princess factory or gold digger academy. rich, snobbish girls attend this school. they are nice people when you get to know them, but get on their bad side and you might as well move to Melbourne Girl's Grammar. :)

Uni High: A school in the suburb of Parkville in Melbourne. A school that sounds great by the name but dont be fooled in reality it truely is a shit hole.
Teenager 1: Where do you go to school?
Teenager 2: University High School
Teenager 1: Oh.. (starts to walk away)

Monash Student: Melbourne University Drop out.
I totally, stuffed my VCE and have to be to Monash student now.
