the 5%

A term often used amongst high school students on the Sydney North Shore to refer to the clique of problematic students within a year group. These students are often characterised by trouble making and/or delinquent-like behaviour.

The term originated at one particular private girls’ school and has spread across multiple North Shore private schools since.
