Party? Have fun and drink? If they are the reasons you want to go to boarding school, you should be honest about it when you have your interview so they can weed you out. They do not want trouble-makers.

You're a bit old to be bothering with boarding school or anything now, surely??? In Australia they finish school aged 18, the same as the UK, and there terms/semesters are different, so you'd probs end up repeating a year... there's no point... wait till university! I'm 17 too, so I know what I'm talking about!

Well I know here at Scotch College Melbourne that there are heaps of boarders from overseas and that it is a really laid-back community, All the borders from overseas are treaeted with heaps of respect and there are always people helpiing you fit in. Parties and drinking? Yeahhh that stuff started at like 14 y/o and most people manage it well. But you probably aren't rich enough to go to Scotch? Well this sorta stuff happens all around the country, you just need to find a good school to go to. You'll fit in well though, the people are genereally friendly and you should enjoy your time here if you do come over.
