And in the interest of general forum knowledge... ;-)

Ugh...this thread convinced me to google up Kirrawee High in 1991.... then I saw all those familiar faces who had so much promise...

English was my best subject, by a long way. Had an English teacher & her husband that took me under their wing, took me to plays etc to help understand the source material better. From memory, when the HSC results came back in, I was top 2% of NSW.

On the flip side....maths & Biology were disasters. Finally cracked 50% on maths right on the bell to save my results from looking tragic.

Did a pretty good job at French, but had inside running as my mum is from Brittany.

Best teacher was my Geography teacher who got me interested in travel. That bug never died. And probably never recognised how important Mrs Lowe (English teacher) was at the time.

Not surprisingly, Nathan Long (former Sharks 2nd Rower) sat behind me in maths.

Perry Haddock (former Illawarra/Saints halfback) was our PE teacher for a while too.
