1. If you go to Port Mac then you would be able to take the two 19 year olds without a problem, whereas that may be a problem on the Gold Coast.

2. The two in year 11 would also be able to slip under the radar if you really wanted them in. Also, while under 18’s can’t buy alcohol obviously, the organisation there isn’t strict about underage drinking like they are in Queensland, so long as you don’t draw too much attention to it by causing trouble.

3. If you stay with the organised schoolies group in Port Mac all you send is your name and a photo, so that restricted parties and things are closed off to the rest of the public. They do not display your name or school. It’s nothing to do with a student id, it’s just to keep unwanted people off the premises.

4. Of all the stories i’ve heard, my Port Mac experience was the best overall.

5. If you want to stay with the organised group (which is the whole point of going to Port Mac) go through their website. That way you have access to all their parties and facilities.

6. Basically see above.

Here is the link to their website: http://www.myspace.com/northcoastschoolies or contact Sundowner Breakwall Tourist Park http://www.sundownerholidays.com as they host the event.

and email me if you have any other questions

2. Again, they should be year 12 but they should be allowed, just underage so no entry to clubs or buying drinks, etc..

3. Schoolies will provide you with ID, you will also need your own ID such as your Ls or Ps

4. Gold Coast hands down. If you dont’ want the big schoolies party thing then just go somewhere on the coast.

5. I think you will have to book through Schoolies.com especially in GC, no one will just rent you a room. You will pay a hefty bond and quite dear rates. If you trash the place you will pay for it.

6. Depends on your budget, I personlly don’t like the Breakfree hotels.

as all the schoolies are drop kicks who cant handle a beer and make a goose of them selves

if you feel the need to get blind drunk and make a fool of your self please go in the surf at night, if you don’t drown hopefully the sharks will get you

and it will be another ass clown the public wont have to deal with

From north to south, after Noosa which is a beautiful place (+ wild koalas in the national park) drop into Eumundi, particularly if it’s Saturday, they have famous markets. Further south theres a Ginger factory near Yandina; the Big Pineapple in Nambour; Ettamogah Pub and Australia Zoo (if you get time turn into Glasshouse mountains but i doubt you will). That should be doable in one day.

South of Brisbane, on the Gold Coast are the famous theme parks however they are not very cheap so they are not worth the price unless you have half a day to spend in each. I would pick one or max two and also visit Surfers Paradise (great beach, restaurants, shopping, nightlife). That’s one day, or two.

South of the Gold Coast, Byron Bay is only a short trip away and you could spend a lot of time there, but you will see it all in one day.
