Brisbane State High School is a partially selective, co-educational, state secondary school, located in South Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. It is a member of the Great Public Schools Association of Queensland, and the Queensland Girls' Secondary Schools Sports Association. As of 2017, the school has 3,190 students, second only to Varsity Lakes Senior School on the Gold Coast. Since the school's fantastic academic record, it has become the flagship school of the department of education and thus, directed a lot of the budget to itself. It has problems of people cheating to get their child into the school and as a result, State High has been performing a crackdown on that activity. Its rival school is supposed to be Coorparoo Secondary College, but due to a large amount of Coorparoo's funding going to State High, that rivalry is very much overlooked. State High also provides a record number of 1200 scholarships.
I go to BSHS.
My mum rented a place in west end for a month so I could get into Brisbane State High School (BSHS).
We're taking on State High this week, not keen.

A Bulimba Mum, or as the north side of Brisbane calls them, New Farm Mum, is a mother who naturally marries a young man, bound to be successful. These mother's drive range rovers, give their children posh names and send them to either Somerville House of The Anglican Church Grammar School (Churchie). The name "Bulimba" comes from the south side suburb of Bulimba, in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. The suburb is believed to be the wealthiest in the south side, and hence, is associated with these wealthy mothers. Although these mothers are thought to be privileged, the public perception on them is slowly changing to one of respect. Many believe these mothers are solely responsible for creating and raising the elite and aristocracy of Australia, and therefore, are responsible for creating the bright future Australia is bound to have. A Bulimba Mum is an insult and a compliment at the same time.
She is such a Bulimba Mum.
Oh, nah yeah, my mum is a total Bulimba Mum.
What's my chosen career path? Well obviously a Bulimba Mum.

St Joseph's College, Gregory Terrace is a Greater Public Schools private, Catholic, day school for boys only, located in Spring Hill, an inner suburb of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Gregory Terrace, or just Terrace, as it's known for short, is the cheapest of the elite GPS schools (excluding Brisbane State High School (BSHS) and yet offers what is considered to be the best education out of all of them. Terrace consistently performs above every other school in the state except for the extremely expensive Brisbane Grammar School, in which they perform of equal standing. As of 2018, fees start at $15,000. The school is famous or being "well rounded," as it performs very well in all three areas. for example, along with its sister school, All Hallow's School, every year, the choirs from both schools travel to Gallipoli, Turkey, to perform as the primary choir at the ANZAC service, that is televised around Australia every ANZAC day. Terrace neither falls short in the sports department, having what is arguably the best playing grounds in the country. The Tennyson Playing Grounds come equipped with a large grandstand, a large HD screen to broadcast the games at play and, what must be the pride of the school, the rowing shed. This rowing shed is the largest in the southern hemisphere. Among other things, Terrace is an extremely well performing school.
