Halloween's never been big here... You get the occassional trick or treater (and When I say that I mean every 2-3 years we got one... We were never prepared anyway) We don't have thanksgiving here either...

It's CHRISTMAS, NEW YEAR'S and Australia dy that you have to worry about down here. And if you're in year 12, SCHOOLIES happens before that...

So yeah. SCHOOLIES WEEK, Then a whole heap of Christmas Parties leading up until Christmas and Boxing day, then New Years Eve, New year's Day and then three weeks later, Australia Day. So effectivly 2 months of drinking, bbq, stuffing yourself silly, Beaches, Sunshine and did I mention drinking???
