What kind of rules do you have in your school?
sometimes they are annoying about uniform codes and the usual stuff but it isn't that strict

Are you allowed to listen to music?
not normally in class but it depends on the teacher. at recess/lunch we aren't supposed to have mp3 players and the like but usually if a teacher sees you they'll either ignore it or tell you to put it away rather than confiscate it. i think the ban is mostly for reasons of insurance coverage

yes, not in class

i've always hated the term bathroom for what i assume you mean. sure we can use the toilet. all i know is that if someone asked if they could use my bathroom for what i would do in my toilet i would kick their lil' as5

not really but the year 12's at my school (me ) normally get away with stuff like that

3x2+ weeks (varies depending on whats going on that time of year but we get at least 2 weeks). our end of year holidays are 7 weeks+ at my high school but more for year 11's who finish about 2 weeks early, 1 week to study for exams and the next week or so to take them. i don't know how the holidays/exams are structured this year because i don't pay enough attention to things

How much do you pay for a coke?
don't know, i've never bought a coke at school

Are you allowed to smoke?
heck no

How many people are in your school?
probably about 700+ students with about 100 in my year level

How many teachers?
have no idea

What classes do you take and how long do they last?
geography, chemistry, physics, discrete mathematics, religion (compulsory ), english. our period length varies depending on the day of the week. on monday and friday our day goes from 8:55-3:10 and tuesday-thursday from 8:55-3:30. we have long and short period which are 55 minutes and 75 minutes respectively. there are 5 periods a day, different combinations is how we ended up with the different length days
