Hey
I went to Elwood from 2003-2008 and have a lot of great\/funny stories.
 
1. ) I remember smoking at the back of the oval with a whole bunch of kids….someone was the lookout who warned us when a teacher on yard duty would walk past.
 2. ) Smoking at the canal and catching a teacher smoking there too who said "I won't say anything if you don't".
 3.) We once had a class on the top floor with the home economics teacher (I cannot for the life of me remember her name). Anyway this particular teacher became so angry that we kept talking and not doing our work she decided to lock the door and made us stay in the room over lunch. One of my mates tried to leave but she blocked the door. The whole class decided to make big banners saying "save us" and screaming out the window to the rest of the school. Moments later one of us got out their phone and called the front desk and said that we were being held against our will ha ha. In typical Elwood style we were finally set free.
 4. Our geography class included going on an excursion to Brighton beach to look at the rocks….and we drove there in the old school Elwood bus; every speed hump felt like the bus was flying in the air.
 5. ) Yearly talent nights, which a friend and I won in year 11 when we did a show as bogans­
 6. ) Waiting for the 267 bus which was always packed like a can of sardines.
 7.) Going down to the bakery, 7/11 or the Turtle Cafe at lunch.
