    In answer to your question, ummmmmmm, sort of.
    Had an altercation with my year 8 science teacher, ( who was a king sized bully and major twatt)
    The Headmaster thought it would be better for everyone if I moved schools.
    Best thing that ever happened to me in my school career!
    Back then there were about 280 kids at MVH, it was a very happy place and where I learned to play Bass.

    I would probably have ended up in prison had I stayed at Bowral High....
    It was a rubbish school, only decent teacher there was the Headmaster.
    The rest of them I wouldn't have wee'd on if they were on fire.....

    It was a good school... If you were in the top two grades...
    The rest of the pack was basically treated like crap and repeatedly told they would never amount to anything....

    I sure hope that has changed....

    If sticking to local geography that might just be Berrima Gaol, only a short trip up the road from Mossy & Bowral.
