This school is a literal wolf in sheep’s clothing. Voted as Victoria’s no.1 public school, in reality the school is terrible and must be avoided at all cost. During open days, the school takes on a friendly approach. However, as the new coming students are hushed past the school gates, its positive manner is forgotten and the school displays a harsh, cold environment to the students. The school readily allows bullying to
get out of hand and prevents students from taking self defensive actions against bullies. A former Year 7 student once reported feeling nauseous after his head was forced into a cupboard and beaten by belts by his peers. The unnamed student then went on to report the incidents but was turned down by the student managers for “lack of evidence” and “we don’t have the resources to
investigate.” The authors can also recall an incident where they were rejected from all activities by the entire class and laughed at behind their backs. The intense bullying severely affected their
mental health and grades. When
questioned by the same teachers who turned to blind eye to the previous bullying, they too dismissed our claims as outlandish and “unlikely to happen in such a privileged school.”
Thomas (tired from bullies): Mom, do I reeeaally have to go to McKinnon Secondary College? I hate it there, kids bully me everyday so much I want to shoot it up if this was America.
Mom: C’mon darling, it can’t be that bad.
The principal looked nice, no cap.
Thomas (eye rolls): That’s because he’s putting up a show for the parents, on purpose.
Mom (already
brainwashed by the school): How dare you!!! You have no rights! I’m going to spank you now and you’re gonna
apologize to the good man Lachlan Noble!
Thomas: 💀
