School ban on hugging
Kelvin Healey
October 15, 2006
A GEELONG high school has launched a crackdown on students hugging, kissing and shaking hands.
Geelong High School says it has ordered pupils to reconsider physical contact between each other, but denies issuing a ban.
Parents say the school softened its stance only after the issue became public.
Students were warned against showing affection to each other at assemblies on Tuesday.
Annette Watkins, whose daughter Caitlin attends the school, said the school's warning to students was unequivocal.

Weird.
Considering at my school a fair bit of public smooching goes on, I'm surprised that they're getting so upset about hugging and shaking hands down there _________________ "Every time we witness an injustice and do not act, we train our character to be passive in its presence." – Julian Assange |

Our school tried to ban than when I was in year 8 (so about 4 yrs ago) because we were scaring the year 7's! It never got passed though. I guess you could say our school is close... HAHA JOKE!
Weird thing though... :S _________________ SuCK IT uP PRINCESS |

Well Joel's brother who is in Yr 6 went on camp last week, and him and his gf got a talking to by the teachers, saying that they know 'all about them being together' and that it was affecting all their friends or something like that. I mean, all they do is hold hands...geez _________________ §üsÅñ »-(¯`v´¯)-» £í©¢ã

I don't know how you do it down there on the Apple Isle, but the article does say "reconsider physical contact between each other". |

Hah, I didn't read past the banning of holding hands and stuff.
None of my schools had any such act accur, though there was a couple of used condoms found...maybe....the teachers got a bit frisky. _________________ Ðavâgé
