Teenage life in Australia
Australians consider the ages of 12 to 17 as teenagers. After leaving school and turning 18 an Australian is an adult. Australians have a 13-year schooling system with a pre-school year. Students start primary school when they turn six and continue for seven years. High school begins in year 8 and continues through to year 12. The school year begins in January and ends in November or December when summer begins in Australia. Each school decides how many subjects a student can take, somewhere between five and seven. English and Mathematics are compulsory. Students choose the subjects that they will continue until graduation. Distance education can be arranged. Students living on the islands do all their schooling through distance education. Every school has a school uniform. Most uniforms are similar and differ in colour.
Many teens take part-time work at the local supermarket or fast-food restaurant. Teens under sixteen can’t work more than 12 hours a week and their parents should give permission.
Sports are an integral part of all Australians’ lives. With 80 % of Australians living not far from the beach swimming lessons are compulsory. In high schools students learn survival swimming and techniques. A trip to the ocean is always fun. There are many other activities for teens: football, cycling, skating, going to the movies. Unfortunately, teenagers spend a great amount of time text-messaging and online chatting with their friends rather than with their family.
