Alright, this isn't my school. But It is still in Hobart. Everyone in Hobart knows this place and the school(bridgewater) is in chaos.

The local authorities should be doing something. This is a bit depressing for students and parents alike. Reminds me of the Virginia Tech attack which my friend missed by a whisker.

This school was also burnt down(arson) so they had to build it again.

This is seriously sick. Even in Melbourne, one of the most livable cities in the world, you can't go out without fearing for your safety...

I wish mate. By world rankings it is one of the safest in the world, but that doesn't mean it's safe....

Especially when people are out to get you.

These things happen, at least it was not a US style gun rampage.

The best thing is prevention, identifying students who could have potential mental problems early and giving them the treatement they need.

Worst case scenario would be metal detectors in the school but if someone really wants to stab somebody else they will find something to use.

Just don't piss people off at school I guess, bullying over here fell to an all time low after Columbine. You just don't know what people are capable of nowadays.
