Behaviour School

This is a view from the window just outside my classroom at the "behaviour" school in Sydney's 'wild west'. Many of these students have had it tough growing up, many with broken-down/no families along side, poor role models. Some have a stable family life but have conditions that linit their capabilities. Others just choose to be (Australian-isms:) Grogs, grubs or gronks! But they do get a pool and a great many re$ource$ put into their education and indeed their lives. Some appreciate it (and rightfully so), many do not. Behind the pool there is a full side soccer/rugby field which is often used by the kids as well as staff. I am just glad i'm not an australian tax payer funding this type of school, but that is another issue, and a messy political one not suitable for blipfoto! However, it is enjoyable being a teacher here and it pays well!

I found out yesterday Blipfoto is an 'Edinburgh Export' (thanks Emmie) the city I was born in, hats off to you Mr Tr££.
