schools..

did a search on wikipedia on argentina for my spanish oral this friday. but instead of reading more about the country, i diversed and started reading about singapore schools somehow. quite interesting. for example...


Dunman High School is known by its alumni for its strict rules and stringent discipline. Previous school rules include:

  • Only completely white canvas shoes with laces are to be worn
  • Bags must be dark-coloured
  • Shirts may only be tucked out to a maximum width of three fingers
  • Students must not enter romantic relationships
  • Students must not remain in the classrooms during breaks
  • Watches must not be greater than 2 cm in diameter and must be dark in colour
  • Socks cannot be folded, rolled nor pushed down; they must be pulled all the way up and must be above the ankle
  • Skirts must fall below the knee (ie. no knee caps visible)
  • No centre parting (hair) allowed for boys
wow. amazing huh. for more info on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunman_High_School

there's also one on catholic high. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catholic_High_School

and if you're as bored as me, you can look for your respective schools on wikipedia.
