So what school do you go to anyway?
He goes to SHORE.

Sydney Boys - selective public school, $1000. Bit expensive, however, those who cannot afford it can have the fee waived, no questions asked.

mine is about 7000

It's totally worth it imho.
My thinking is as long as you enjoy your schooling and like the education (+ resources) then it's a good school and must certainly be worth the money... By paying for my education, I get the better friends... (not the delinquents from other schools :p)

at my school i pretty much have everything i really wanted...

friends, pretty good education system, great teachers (some of them are arguably the best in the state), great resources, everything pretty much.

my life would never be same if I went to other school

Mine would be about $6000 but i'm on scholarship so only pay about $300 i think
I love my school, can't imagine attending another!
Money well spent in my opinion, but if you like your school it shouldn't matter how much it costs

Bout $150, but yeh don't have to pay if I don't want to. I go to a public school, but my parents are going to get me tutored for anything I need help with next year. I don't think my parents beleive in the private education system, and yeh as a result neither do I. I think it's more benificial when it comes to the real world. You learn how to deal with people from all walks of life, and besides a lot of the private schools around my area are not better than my school.

about $18000 a year...small change really and means going to one of if not the best school there is...you pay for what you get
WHOA! You must be rich! That is a lot for education. But if you are getting the vibriant education environment you enjoy, I guess money isn't a problematic obstacle.

My tuition is all free :) Voluntary contributions and some others add up to quite a bit though.
Otherwise, you usually pay up to about $23000 !!!

SCEGGS

Anyway, if you look at Eton's website, the guys that go there

Mine are about $18 000.
It's ranked just outside the top 100, so I don't really know why it's so expensive...

^ quite brilliant id say :p SBHS is 1000, but like 1/2 of it is contribution to the school library... and considering we get like top coaches and fields for sport FREE (or so they say), its worth it... but my parents dont think so :p
