Free Period Time (2 Viewers)

[Sparcod]

If we have a morning free period we still have to come to school normal time for roll call but if we have an afternoon free period we can leave early

If you have a free period during the middle of the day, are you guys allowed to leave school? At some places, you can. We usually spend our free periods playing basketball or football or in the library.

 

[pLuvia]

Oh no no, I was meaning like a last period free you can leave, and first period free you have to come normal time for roll call

But during the day, we are suppose to be in the library, but some people just don't go to library

 

[pLuvia]

Yes people who have free periods in between 1st and last are so sucked in

 

[Sparcod]

I'd feel sorry for you or anyone who has 1st and last period for that day.
Whatcha going to do in between?? Aghhh

 

[Guernica]

We're allowed to do whatever whenever. If we are not in a class, we do not have to be in school..

I have 15 frees and zilch of them are first or last period. Bit shit. But hey, more homework time I guess.

I dont we're allowed to leave and even if we were, what are you gonna do for 50 minutes?

 

[7th Sign]

pfft just leave during the 50 minutes like every one does it at my school,

Its good when u had like a free then lunch, me and the boys just got in a car and went to maccas....

some times during frees i even went home, then came back to school...

 

[Bookie]

Oh well, it takes me 50 minutes to actually get from school to home.

 

[Guernica]

My school is right in the middle of town. So.. there's lots of things you can do in an hour free.

 

[pLuvia]

My school is in the middle of no where, the closest shop is like 20 mins away and we're not allowed to leave during frees, we have to be in school grounds unless we have signed off

I have no free periods because I do 12 units. There's only Tuesday where we get to leave school early in a period where we would normally have sport in previous years.

 

[Bookie]

I suppose I could go to Fox Studios - but then I'd need $8 for food. I'm not up for that.

??? I do 13 units and I have 5 frees...

 

[Sparcod]

We aint allowed to leave school grounds either.
We could sneak out.
There's KFC just a few doors down.
Hurstville is a 10 minute walk away or a few minutes by bus.
75 minutes free?? There's plenty of stuff to do.

My school only supports 12 units. One period is 80 minutes. We have half periods on Mondays and Tuesdays. So I have 2 periods where I can leave school early which are on Tuesdays. Here's how my school's timetable is set out:
Monday:
Period 1 - 8:45 - 10:10
Recess - 10:10 - 10:30
Period 2 - 10:30 - 11:50
Period 3 - 11:50 - 12:30 <== 40 minute period
Lunch - 12:30 - 1:10
Period 4 - 1:10 - 2:30

Tuesday:
Period 1 - 8:45 - 10:10
Recess - 10:10 - 10:30
Period 2 - 10:30 - 11:10 <=== 40 minute period
Period 3 - 11:10 - 12:30
Lunch - 12:30 - 1:10
Period 4 - 1:10 - 2:30 <==== This is either sport or we sign out

Wednesday, Thursday, Friday:
Period 1 - 8:45 - 10:10
Recess - 10:10 - 10:30
Period 2 - 10:30 - 11:50
Period 3 - 11:50 - 1:10
Lunch - 1:10 - 1:50
Period 4 - 1:50 - 3:10

Each unit is 3 periods per fortnight. Therefore it can only support 12 units plus 2 extra periods per fortnight. If a senior study period is between recess and lunch, then we have to stay in the library. There are people in my school who have a double study period in that time! lol! If a senior study period is in period 1, then we can stay home and come to school 10 minutes prior our next lesson. If a senior study period is in period 4 (which it is usually not), then we can leave school early. This also applies if we have no available teacher for a class.
